"LORD, YOU HAVE BEEN OUR HOME SINCE THE BEGINNING." PSALM 90:1

This was today's reading in Word for Today.

It's so true, our God is our home. I find that I forget this all the time especially when I'm focusing on other things. It's something that I can't afford to forget. I need to keep reminding myself that wherever I am, whatever I'm doing I can be in the presence of my Father, in His house, my home.

You know that feeling where you feel a bit out of place, ungrounded even insecure and you're desperately trying to find something to hold on to? We all need some security, some things in our lives that don't change, things that are strong, dependable, immovable, faithful and trustworthy. God is all these things.

You can always go home. You can go to a place where no matter what's going on in your life you can feel secure and safe and contented. If Jesus is your savior then you can be in that place constantly, it's actually part of your inheritance.

We miss out on so many of God's promises and blessings. We're too busy worrying, trying to hold onto everything, which is impossible anyway. Our Father has the whole world in His hands. More importantly, He has your world firmly in His grip. He's knows where everything is, He knows where you are and He has plans to bring you good, plans to bring you closer to Him.

I'm shouting this at myself because sometimes I think I must be profoundly deaf or something..

TRUST IN GOD, PUT YOUR FAITH AND FUTURE IN YOUR FATHERS HANDS. YOU ARE COMPLETELY SAFE IN HIM.

You set me apart
Gave me a new heart
Filled with compassion
To share Your great love

Show me Your ways
I want to know You
Guide me in truth
My hope is in You

That I may dwell in Your house forever
Lifting up Your name
Dwell in Your house forever more

I'll hold on to You,
My strength and my refuge.
Whom shall I fear?
I know You are near

All of my days
I live for You, Lord
Establish my path
There's one thing I ask
That I may dwell in Your house forever
Lifting up Your name
Dwell in Your house forever more

That I may dwell in Your house forever
Lifting up Your name
Dwell in Your house forever more

Holy Spirit, have Your way
Sweet anointing teach our hearts
Our lives, we pray

That I may dwell in Your house forever
Lifting up Your name
Dwell in Your house forever more
