Home is With God

The Christian knows no change with regard to God.  He himself may be rich today and poor tomorrow, he may be sickly today and well tomorrow, he may be in happiness today, tomorrow he may be distressed;  but there is never any change with regard to his relationship to God.


If He loved me yesterday then He loves me today. My unmoving mansion of rest, is my blessed Lord.


Let prospects be ruined, let hopes be blasted, let joy be withered, let mildews destroy everything.  I have lost nothing of what I have in God. He is "my strong habitation where unto I can continually resort." I am a pilgrim in the world, but at home in my God. In the earth I wander, but in God I dwell in a quiet habitation.


[Charles H. Spurgeon]

Habakkuk 3:17-19 …  Although the fig tree shall not blossom, neither shall fruit be in the vines; the labour of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meat; the flock shall be cut off from the fold, and there shall be no herd in the stalls:  Yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will joy in the God of my salvation.  The Lord God is my strength, and he will make my feet like hinds' feet, and he will make me to walk upon mine high places. To the chief singer on my stringed instruments.




Psalm 90:1-2 … Lord, thou hast been our dwelling place in all generations.  Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.
