Scripture

“Lord, you have been our dwelling place in all generations.” Psalm 90:1

Reflections

What do you consider to be your home?  Have you lived in a number of different places?  Apartments?  Houses?  Different parts of the country?  Different parts of the world?

Some may consider their “home” a part of the country.  People say that Texas is their home.  Some may consider a particular piece of property, like the old family homestead, their home.  Their hearts become very tied to that piece of property.

Some people may have lived in the same house most all their lives.  They do everything they can to make everything just how they want it to be in their home.  It is their place of comfort and security.  They do everything they can to remain in that home.  It’s unimaginable to live anywhere else.

Inasmuch as a particular place may be considered home, it is still just a temporary home.  We will not dwell here forever.  Our days in this life will come to an end.  It’s almost like we just come to this place and “camp out” for a while.

There is another home even more special than this one; our heavenly home.  Our true eternal home is with God.  Regardless of our homes here on earth, we have the promise of a home far better than anything we can imagine awaiting us; our dwelling place with God.

Prayer

Lord God, thank you for the roof I have over my head this day.  Help me to remember that my true home is with you.  In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
