Homesick

Here is a word for you from the Word.

Psalm 84:2-4

My soul yearns, even faints, for the courts of the LORD; my heart and
my flesh cry out for the living God. Even the sparrow has found a
home, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may have her young
- a place near your altar, O LORD Almighty, my King and my God.
Blessed are those who dwell in your house; they are ever praising you.
NIV

Every human soul longs for one thing, a home. A homeless person is an
unhappy person. The psalmist cries out in agony in a sense of
loneliness, a sense of being cut off. He says, "Lord, even the
sparrow's found a home, the swallow a nest for herself. I need a
home too." He says, "They found a place near Your
altar" and that's where the home of the soul is. Even
though we may not have much of a home in this world, there's a
home for the soul, a place where the soul belongs, a place where it
finds rest and ease and peace, where it's at home, a place near
God's altar. The altar is the place of yielding, sacrifice,
dedication, self-surrender, and when our soul comes to that place,
it's come home.

There is a beautiful homecoming for each soul that will turn from sin
and rebellion, turn back to God and come to the place near the altar.
