It’s time to go back home and I can’t wait to see my family! It always feels like I’ve been gone a few days too many.

The flight is about the same length on the return trip but the time difference (moving ahead three hours) makes the day fade quickly.

I still think the best part of traveling is going home. Seeing the lovely face of my wife, hearing the excited voices of my children and seeing their grins melts my heart. The kids are always excited to see me and always excited to see if I have brought them a prize. Hopefully in that order!

Perhaps that will be the best part of our journey. Going home. Seing the lovely faces of those we love. Hearing the excited voices of the children of God.

Seeing the face of Jesus. Hearing the voice of God asking Jesus, “What did you bring me?”

Feeling the hand of Jesus, on the small of your back, as he gently pushes you towards God as he says, “Here’s the prize I bought for you.”

Standing there, seeing that huge grin on the face of God, hearing him say your name, hearing him say “welcome home.”
