—Titus 2:11-15

Have you ever had such a bad trip that the anticipation of your final destination waned? Missed connections, late flights, longer-than-usual stopovers, lost luggage, storms, and irritable (and irritating) traveling companions, all lend themselves to this experience. We can expect the same in the journey of life. There will be trials and troubles, exasperations and unfair treatment. There will be missed opportunities and failures and sadness and pain. But we are encouraged to keep our eyes on the prize: the promise of heaven and of life with God forever. We are encouraged to “wait for the blessed hope,” (v.13, NIV) of our final destination.
