My room is almost empty. My bed, computer, drawer, shelf, etc... they're all gone. In a few years, I'll regret not taking a picture of my room in it's normal state... actually, I'm beginning to regret it as I type, knowing that it'll never be that way again. In a couple weeks, I'll probably never step foot in this room again and even if I do, it wouldn't be the same... thank goodness it's just a room.

All this packing and getting ready to move has really got my mind going on what it's going to be like to go "home" home. It's definitely a lot easier to move houses when there's not much to move. A lot of things that we have we don't need and we're realizing that as we sort through all our belongings. I'm wondering how long it would take me to "pack" when Christ comes to take me home. Though we are in this world physically, we must not set our hearts on the things in this world. We must be ready to leave as soon as our Lord returns.

"Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. For you have died and your life is hidden with Christ in God" Colossians 3:2-3

"The sands of time are sinking,
The dawn of heaven breaks;
The summer morn I’ve sighed for -
The fair, sweet morn awakes:
Dark, dark had been the midnight
But dayspring is at hand,
And glory, glory dwelleth
In Emmanuel’s land."
