Well, God's approach is to act as if you'll be there for a long time. Quit wishing you were somewhere else or someone else. Make something of the place where you are. There are people there who need Christ. Don't look past them because you don't like where you are. http://biblegateway.com/passage/?search=2%20Kings%2024:13-15&version=NIV 2009-09-11T09:49:04-05:00 God had longed warned His people in the Old Testament that their repeated disobedience would result in exile from their homeland if they did not repent and change their ways. In this verse, they suffer the fate of exile that God had warned them about.
