Does Anyone Feel Like an Alien?

But...one more note: looking forward to the time when...
Isaiah 29:24
"They also that erred in spirit shall come to understanding, and they that murmured shall learn doctrine"
That would of course include myself.....then at last....no more "alien-nation!" :)

Good verse MG. Jesus is an alien like us. I made very good friends in my childhood that lasted until I was 18. But, every childhood friend I ever had has left me ... moved away or is not on friendly terms. The "friends" I made in highschool were not really friends. College was similar, I had one or two friends that I got estranged from. The good friends I made 9 or 10 years ago when I first came to Jesus have moved away or I have become estranged from them. The synagogue I came out of, I was a Messianic Jew,I have become estranged from as well. My best friend is my brother who has also come to know the truths I know now having come to Ray's site. God has still given me him and some new friends at work and my immediate family.
Growing up, and even now, I always seemed to have "identity crises" since I always seemed like an outcast. I seemed to always move to the beat of a different drummer than everyone else. I thought of these scriptures in Hebrews 11.
37 They were stoned. They were sawn apart. They were tempted. They were slain with the sword. They went around in sheep skins and in goat skins; being destitute, afflicted, ill-treated
38 (of whom the world was not worthy), wandering in deserts, mountains, caves, and the holes of the earth.
39 These all, having had testimony given to them through their faith, didn't receive the promise,
40 God having provided some better thing concerning us, so that apart from us they should not be made perfect.

I asked my teens if they thought they could find someone who believes that Lucifer was not the devil. The answer was, "No." I am blessed that have been able to stay home and home school three of them (the fourth went through public school). They have experienced a lot of estrangement themselves. Secular kids seem to nearly always shun them. My one son bonded with another boy on his baseball team a few years back. We discovered late in the season that he was home schooled by his faith filled mother. I am happy that my kids are aliens also. I would not have it any other way. ;D
