Getting away is the best when you are stressed and weary. Like a breath of fresh air, getting away and intimate with the one who created you is overpowering, overwhelming, weakening, yet so peaceful...
Time away from the 619 was much needed and awesome. Being in Riverside has made me realize that I really don't have a place to call 'home'. This doesn't mean that I don't have a place to live. I do live in a house with other bros and usually crash at other friends places when traveling. But 'home' is no longer a place that I can go to now.
My home is not here and never will be. I had a home; but til I leave this life on earth I will never be 'home'- that place of rest and comfort where I can simply stay and know that I belong there and nowhere else
Nothing here will satisfy like being home with my maker, your maker, our maker- God Almighty.
There is that need also. That need to remain faithful as He is faithful. Why is it so tough to be full of faith? faith-full to Him that gives all and is all?
Why do we put our flesh before blood?? Why do we fall so quickly?!
We need a covenant. A covenant to stay true, to stay pure, to stay in the light.
In the words of Thommy Green from SG:
Your Heart is Mine. COVENANT. Your Heart is My Heart. NEVER FORGET.
never forget.
never forget.
Holy Spirit- Convict us. Guide us. CHANGE us.
Blood before flesh. Christ before me. Christ the King...
May I stay true to my name. May I follow Him Always.
Stay True- you who are called Christian- Stay True

WORD. I've felt the same way for quite some time... interestingly enough-its almost comforting that we'll never "feel at home." Its confirmation that we belong to God, not to the world or any place of the world-we simply but surely belong to God.
