"I’d spent so much time in my life moving that I forgot what it was like to let my heart be still in the space I called home. As I prayed, the idea that came to the surface was the encouragement to make a home. To settle down and settle in. It felt a little silly, but I realized how much I'd been waiting for something to shift and for my heart to be uprooted all over again. I'd spent so much time in my life moving that I forgot what it was like to let my heart be still in the space I called home. This invitation to make a home wasn't just one to grow up, but to grow into whatever the Lord is up to next.
Over and over in Scripture, we see that God gives His people a place to find peace. Paul closes his second letter to the Thessalonians with the blessing, 'Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times and in every way' (2 Thessalonians 3:16)."
