Good Morning

REV BOB PEDEN

Wouldn’t you love to call Mayberry your hometown? At idyllic place featured in The Andy Griffith Show. A place where everything seems to move at a slower pace and everyone is good and wholesome and kind, and any trivial difficulty can be overcome easily in 30 minutes or less. Did you know that Mayberry is based on an actual town, Mt. Airy, North Carolina.

You could actually make Mayberry your hometown. But last November the headlines read, “Man charged with killing 4 in Mayberry model town.” It seems that even Mayberry is not immune to the struggles for power in this world. But for those who are children of God, we do not have to search for a place like Mayberry. For we know that we are only visiting this world and that our hometown is in a place that is even better than Mayberry. A place where it doesn’t take 30 minute to resolve difficulties, for there are no problems to begin with. That’s my hometown. Where do you call home?
