Ugly Duckling – Get Ready To Fly

I used to always sing this to the kids at bath time. I loved it whether or not they did!

As I write the talk now for this coming Sunday at Ivy Church I finish up thinking about our living out our potential.

But if we think about our potential as only being for this life, we miss out so much of what God has prepared for us.

The Bible says about Jesus, ‘When we see Him, we will know Him,’ (How?) ‘Because we’ll be like Him.’ 

We live as citizens of heaven. This world is not our home, we don’t always fit in. Some days more than others we feel that don’t we?

But our Christian hope is that one day soon, we’ll stand before Him. We would be ashamed of our ‘grubbiness’ as we focus on ourselves, until he says, ‘Look at who I have you!’

The perishable will be clothed with the imperishable. We’ll never waddle again, but soar!
