I am NOT homeless


Be to me a rock of habitation to which I may continually come; You have given commandment to save me, For You are my rock and my fortress. Ps 71:3 NASB

Habitation - dwelling place, den, refuge, lair

I have much to write about this verse, but left my life journal at the house - and I'm not at the house. ::snort::

This verse has ministered to me greatly during this pcs (military move). God is my immovable, strong and secure habitation. He's my dwelling place, my den and He welcomes me to continually come to this secure location. ::snort:: HE has given commandments to save me....He is my rock and my CASTLE...my stronghold.

Regardless of where I live....be that a trailer, a hotel room, a campus house, a single family dwelling, a duplex, a 4plex, a high rise apartment, off base house, on base house or that infamous box at the side of the rice paddy (family joke)...I always have a habitation to which I can run. I am not homeless. I have a secure and permanent residence. He, Himself, His name and Presence are my home. I am at home!

Choosing Joy!
