MY HOME IS IN YOU

 

My home is the sun shining down on me

And filling my soul

With light.

My home is a song,

An echo from heaven

Which gives my spirit wings.

My home has neither roof nor walls.

It is your hand holding me close.

I sing.

I smile.

I soar.

AT HOME IN YOUR ARMS

Come!

I tremble.

You hold me close.

I sigh.

I rest.

MY WORLD

Into His Hands

Bread in the oven,

dog’s asleep nearby.

The parrot’s singing in the livingroom

in a cage by a sunny window.

The house is otherwise quiet,

the family’s safe,

the weather mild,

all is at peace.

Tomorrow’s worries have no place here.

OUT OF THIS WORLD – Home Redefined

My home is the sun shining down on me

And filling my soul

With light.

My home is a song,

An echo from heaven

Which gives my spirit wings.

My home has neither roof nor walls.

It is your hand holding me close.

I sing.

I smile.

I soar.

MY HOMECOMING

 

Oh, the search, so far and wide
For changing leaves or changing tide.
 
A mansion on a hill so high,
Or sleeping bag beneath the sky?
 
The road, so long with many lanes . . .     
At times by foot but oft by planes.
 
Will my journey ever end?
Or, will another cloud descend?
 
Then, looking in your eyes I knew,
And every doubt suddenly flew!
 
For home is not a place apart,
But somewhere deep within the heart.

The Way Home

Oh, the search, so far and wide
For changing leaves or changing tide.
 
A mansion on a hill so high,
Or sleeping bag beneath the sky?
 
The road, so long with many lanes . . .     
At times by foot but oft by planes.
 
Will my journey ever end?
Or, will another cloud descend?
 
Then, looking in your eyes I knew,
And every doubt suddenly flew!
 
For home is not a place apart,
But somewhere deep within the heart.

Abide With Me

True hope can only come from the living Word of God. I have been in need of encouragement and hope lately and received it thru several channels including the sermon Sunday, the prayers at yesterday’s healing service, and the following quote. Guard your heart, friends, and be careful where you put your trust:

“For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form, and in Christ you have been brought to fullness. He is the head over every power and authority.” – Colossians 2:9-10 NIV
