Where's home for you? I'm not talking about a city or a country. Those things can change. I'm talking about where do you park your soul? Where do you reside? Where's your abode? Jesus says he wants you to make your home with him. Home is not a set of doctrines, traditions or sentimental memories of a time gone by. He says that there is a direct correlation between making your home with him and abiding or remaining in His Word. He tells us to abide in Him and to abide in His Word. And don't forget that it's a good word. It's the gospel. It's not a condemning word. It's a word of grace. it welcomes the tired, the exhausted, the bruised, the disappointed. And those burdened with shame and regrets. It's a healing word that says the pressures off, Jesus says come home to me, and make yourself at home. In my good word. And this corresponds with remaining and abiding in his love. When you've made yourself at home, in his good and loving word, you In turn, will experience His love. You will know his love, and you'll know to offer that love to others. You can't give what you don't have. But if you have made your home in him, then you'll have something to offer this broken world. You'll be able to offer the love of God, you will offer the gospel by the very way you live and that will bear much fruit. And that is the prayer that I have for my own soul. That's the prayer that I have for my family, for my wife and my daughters and my son. And that's the prayer that I have for you may be so
You are loved!
