This world is not our home. That is why it doesn’t fit. It’s too small. The Kingdom of God is among us—even in us (John 17:21). God placed eternity in our hearts (Ecc. 3:11) and we won’t be satisfied with less.
That displaced feeling isn’t remedied by conforming to “fit in” when the Kingdom is the domain for which we were created.
Romans 8:18-19 accurately sets our expectations: “I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us. For creation waits in eager expectation for the children of God to be revealed.”
Jesus is speaking about us in John 17:14 as He prays, ”I have given them Your Word, and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.”
1 John 2:15 implores, “Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
We are to love God (John 14:15-17), seeking first His Kingdom. As Jesus says, everything else will be added to us (Matthew 6:33). Selah.
