Home: A Safe and Welcome Space

There can be many different places and even people with whom and where we feel at home. These places and people provide a sense of safety, welcome and warmth. We can create a sense of home through the way we interact with people and celebrate the strengths they bring. When at home with people and places, we feel safe to take risks and be open about strengths and weaknesses, challenges and opportunities, and dreams, no matter how big. There is a strong sense of personal safety.

God invites us to create this sense of home for others through caring for our neighbours. Most importantly, He invites us to be at home with Him. To relax and rest, to feel safe at our best and our worst in His grace and love and to be recharged. He is always present to welcome us home.
