Psalm 90:1-2

Lord, you have been our dwelling-place in all generations. Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever you had formed the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God. 

With an everlasting love

Home is wherever Love finds you. And wherever Love finds your heart … you are home … wherever you are.

You are the home for which we long, Holy One.

Deep hungers move us to press beyond ourselves, beyond where we are and what we know until we find the heart’s true home where our inner longings still … as we know: This is what we truly need, this is what we always wanted but could never name. Such is our human condition.

Wherever our daily journeys take us we search for the home beyond every home we have ever known, eager to enter that place, that condition of knowing the Love beyond all others, the everlasting home that stirs our longing.

Arriving there, knowing the place in our soul for even a moment, releases streams of living water, currents of peace flowing through the heart, freshening the soul with a joy known nowhere … but in you.

With an everlasting love, you seek us. In our in-most longings you draw us to yourself that we may abide in you, resting in the everlasting love you are.

Find us today, Holy One. Seek our hearts in all the places we go and through every face we meet. Speak our name through the voices of earth and sky, color and wonder. Open our eyes to see and our ears to hear you in the wonder of everything you have made.

Fill our hearts with the joy of being totally one with you, our home from everlasting to everlasting. Even one moment of this ecstasy is enough.

Pr. David L. Miller
