A Pilgrim's Perspective

A pilgrim is a traveler, one who stays in a place temporarily, but who has a set destination. As pilgrims, our motto should be “Just passing through!” We should avoid getting too attached to earthly things because this is merely our temporary home. Life is a journey and earth is not our final destination. We, like Father Abraham, are looking for our permanent, eternal home—“a city which has foundations, whose builder and maker is God” (Heb. 11:10). “A Pilgrim’s Perspective” deals with issues we encounter and attitudes we should develop along our pathway. It will enable you to see the temporary nature of earthly things and the permanent nature of heavenly things. “So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal” (2 Cor. 4:18, NIV).
