My body's just a shelter for my soul

And I know, I know
That the world is temporary
And these shelters that I dwell in aren't my home
And I know, I know
That this truth is hard to carry
My body's just a shelter for my soul
I will go on
(Shelters, Village on Yarn)

New-found respect for my friend Nic and his band, Village on Yarn. Thank you for reminding me that this world is temporary, that there is a life beyond this that we are living for. After all, Paul presses on to something greater. I pray that I remember that the shelters--whether room, apartment, or body--I dwell in are not my home. That my soul would long for something deeper, that there is a life with my savior at the fullest and at completion, as opposed to what we have here. This world is not my home.
