Summary
Where do you feel most "at home"? When are you most free to be yourself? Ultimately, our hearts can only fully experience this through a deep relationship with Jesus Christ. He's the one who settles our insecurities and gives us the sense of belonging which we crave.
If you're feeling a sense of exile, of not feeling seen and known and loved... maybe it's time to discern if that's due to trying to make your home in other places. As Henri Nouwen pointed out, sometimes we know we have a home, we just don't choose to live there.
Let's choose home! Let's decide to live there. Because that's where we belong—and if we're not home with the Father, it's very difficult to find home in the world.
Today's episode continues with Blessed is She's Advent Devotional, Maranatha.
