In All Generations

What’s your “family home?” For me, it’s where I had my own room, where Mom did so much cooking, where we had a tree house and the wishing well Grandpa built. Over the years, five generations of us gathered there.

I love how Psalm 90 calls God “our dwelling place” — our shelter, where we gather and are nourished, where we play and rest, a place which we and uncounted generations call “home.”

However good or bad our own dwelling places, we have a better one. In this life and the next, we dwell in the arms of our heavenly Father, thanks to his Son Jesus, who made his dwelling among us (John 1:14).
