/*I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. -- Psalm 23:6*/

There's something very comforting about having a home. Over twenty years 
ago I worked as a parole officer for the state of Ohio. My job involved 
a great deal of driving as I served two or three rural counties. At the 
time, I was coming to terms with my own feelings of isolation born 
partly of being an Air Force brat and moving over 25 times by the time I 
was 25. I remember well the lonely feeling of wanting to drive and drive 
and drive, and then step out of my car and be home.

Ten years later, we were homeless -- staying here or there wherever 
someone would put us up for a few nights. One cold night, I remember 
driving down the highway and suddenly feeling overwhelmed and 
disoriented. Which exit was ours? My car passed under one green sign 
after another, but none of them pointed home.

To have a place in God's heart, at His table, in His family -- to know 
that Jesus has gone ahead to prepare a place for you and for me -- how 
can we put a value on gifts like these?

Be encouraged!
