I love being at home! At home I can really be myself and get comfortable! I can sit in my recliner and watch the Red Sox (hopefully beat the Yankees tonight), and drink a diet coke. There is just something about being at home with your family, and being loved and accepted!
We also need to realize that God's Word says that we are the HOME OF THE HOLY SPIRIT! That we are the temple of the Holy Spirit. Is the Holy Spirit at home in our lives? Is the Holy Spirit welcomed in our homes, lives?
I was reading this morning in 2 Corinthians 6: 16-18 and we see the purpose and the blessing for allowing the Holy Spirit to be a full-time resident in our lives. "For we are the temple of the Living God. As God said, I will live in them and walk among them. I will be their God, and they will be my people. Therefore come out from among them and separate yourselves from them, says the Lord. Don't touch their filthy things and I will welcome you. And I will be your Father, and you will be my sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty."
When God lives in our lives - how in the world can we not be different! If you really want the blessing of God in your life - then welcome Him to become a full-time resident in your life?
