Instead, they (people of Faith) were longing for a better country—a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them. [Hebrews 11:13-16 ]
These were all commended for their faith, yet none of them received what had been promised. God had planned something better for us so that only together with us would they be made perfect. [Hebrews 11:39-40 ]
A good reminder for us to know that our hope is not in this world -- but the one to come, and to realize not to get too caught up with the affairs of this world. ( Lord, awake us up so that our hearts are not weighted down with all the dissipation and anxities of life )
