For You have been my refuge, a strong tower against the foe. I long to dwell in Your tent forever and take refuge in the shelter of Your wings.
Psalm 61:3-4
What do you think of when you think of ‘home’? For me, having grown up in a dysfunctional family, my home was always a place of chaos and anxiety. I think this is why I’ve never been a homebody. But now that we’re all quarantined due to Covid-19 and spending all of our time at home, I’ve been forced to face this struggle with my understanding of home. In many ways, it has been a blessing in disguise because I sense that God is slowly changing the concept of home from a place of chaos to a shelter of refuge. Fortunately, the physical home that my wife and built together for our family is a place of stability and safety. But more importantly, God is teaching me that He is my spiritual home of peace, trust, and love.
