Lord, through all the generations, you have been my home. – Psalm 90:1(NLT)
TRUE HOME
A poem and essay by ILMA
Do you get lost in the corruption of this world?
Do you consult God’s truth by meditating on his word?
Life can sometimes become chaotic and confusing at times
We can be consumed with many different things in our lives.
The Lord is always with us through many generations
He is our home, let’s run to him as we face temptations
When we go through many challenges, trials and sufferings
Let us go to our true home, the one true God Almighty.

Have you ever travelled for a number of days, weeks, months that you became so homesick? When you are in transit to many places, you pine for the comfort of your own home and wish that your journey ends where you are comfortable and familiar with. Other places or people can sometimes become alienating, especially if you are a “home person.”
The bible tells us that the Lord has always been with us through many generations. He never leaves or forsakes us despite our feelings that we are abandoned. But we can get muddled and lost in this very cruel and confusing world. The prodigal son’s story shows us how he left his father and asked for his inheritance, just to squander it later. He realized later that his Father’s home is still the best.
