Knowing I am Home

WKnowing-I-am-Home225x215

This place is not quite home,
but soon enough it will be.  
And it all begins with You.

Come inside.  
Live with me here.
Surround me in these walls.  
Guard me with this roof.  
Support me with these floorboards.  
Be in the food that I eat.  
Sit among the guests I entertain.  
Let me lie down beside You
at the end of each day and
wake to your perfect light each morning.

Be part of every board and rafter,
every knob and faucet.  
Knowing You are here means knowing I am home.
