Home Sweet Home

It's always nice going away for a few days, but it is wonderful to come home!  Just think how wonderful it will feel when we reach our final home, heaven.  In the meantime, I praise and thank God that I have a home to come "home" to.  Even our girls love coming "home:.  We were in Disney in June and while the girls were enjoying every second of the excitement that comes with a Florida vacation, they still wanted to be home.  "Mom, don't you wish our beds were here?"  "I would love to take a bath in my bath tub."  "I miss my fish, I miss my rabbit, I miss my dog."
Father, I thank you for providing for my needs of food and shelter.  Your promise is that you will provide this for your people, but your promise did not include the style of living we currently enjoy.  I thank you for this extra measure of blessing!  I ask that you show us how to use our "home" to serve others.  Father, I pray that our girls continue to appreciate this blessing.  I know that you will always give them what is NEEDED, and I pray that you allow them to use the gifts and abilities you have given them to build a life that is glorifying to you and that they will always use what they have to serve you and others.
