What Home is Best?

We all value home. It's a very special place.


Poem Artwork

“Home is where I hang my hat

I make the best of where I’m at.”

That was my answer to,

“Where is the BEST place you ever lived?”

 

For I lived in many parts of the United States;

I liked them all, my favorite is hard to rate.

 

For the home is at the very center of our hearts.

Home is where we build a family from the start

 

I lived three years in England, traveled about Europe, that was grand.

Spent time in Alaska, Korea and Hawaii; enjoyed three years in Japan.

 

Lived in tents, lived a cottage and lived in a flat.

Lived in a house on a cliff, lived in a home with a dog and another with two cats.

 

Through it all it really did not matter what house it was or how big the living space

For a family filled with love - made our home a very special place

 

The Lord has prepared us a place in Heaven – that’s the finish line – the ultimate quest!

Our final home will be Eternal and that one will definitely be the best!

Amen

 

Reference: John 14:2 (KJV) “In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.”

My Mind Is A Camp Among The Lord's Palace
as long as we embrace the Lord inside out heart
everywhere is a lovely home while we are here

Looking forward to seeing you up there in our new home...after we've accomplished what He has in mind for us here.

Thank you John Michael for sharing your poem.
So many of us have been: a foreigner, extranjero, alienigena,
ein Auslander, obcokrajowiec, bir yabancinin, un etrager,
and reside in someone else's country, a place that became
a home away from home, made us feel comfortable enough to...
...hang our hats.., but the last place.."will definitely
be the best...", HOME, never to be a foreigner, ...., ....,
...., ....., ...., ...., again!
Warm regards. Isabella.
