Home is Not Just a Place We Go — It’s Where We Belong
When Jesus told the story of the younger son leaving home (Luke 15:11-32), He wasn’t giving a geography lesson. The son didn’t just walk away from a house—He walked away from a relationship, from identity, from the place where he was known and loved.
And when he returned, the Father didn’t just open a door; He ran, embraced him, restored him, clothed him, and celebrated him. Why? Because the Father never forgot where the son truly belonged.
This is the foundational truth about life in the Father’s house: home is not just where you live.
Home is where you are loved.
And in the Father’s heart, you have never really lived anywhere else.
