Being in your place is much more than a physical location.
Proverbs 27:8, As a bird that wandereth from her nest, so is a man that wandereth from his place.
Have you ever heard someone say something like, “Get in your places now?” It could’ve been a teacher, a CO in the service, or maybe even a Mom or Dad getting you in the right spot for family pictures. Whoever was attempting to get you to fall in line where you needed to be was trying to get you in the place only you could fill. Sometimes that place was not just a physical place either. Sometimes that place was for you to get your mind back where it needed to be.
Guess what Child of God, you have a place you need to be and it’s not just physically! Anyone can come to church and be a million miles away. If you’re not there mentally and physically, you are missing out on God’s best for your life. I am reminded of what Isaiah 26:3 says this morning, “Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.”
