Home is where Jesus is. We are not home now. We were not home in the house we grew up in, however much that felt like home. Or did not feel like home. Some of us grew up in unsafe families. Whether we’ve had a satisfying sense of belonging, safety, and nurture or not, if we are part of the family of Jesus, home awaits. When trials and traumas assail us, we can remember and proclaim to ourselves: “We are not home here. This is not all there is. Jesus will make up to us all we’ve endured here.” Thank you Jesus, for hope! The Lord bless you and keep you all your days.
