• “In all places and at all times, we can have that familiar friendship, we can have Him with us; and there may be through the day a constant interchange of private words, of little offerings, too small to have any name attached to them—by which the bonds of that familiar friendship grow closer and more real, until it comes to that special personal intimacy, which we call sanctity.” – Janet Erskine Stuart, 1857-1914

My Home is God Himself by Frances Brook

Published April 13, 2018 | By womenofchristianity
  • My home is God Himself; Christ brought me there,
    And bade me dwell in Him, rejoicing there;
    He bore me where no foot but His hath trod,
    Within the holiest at home with God.
    O holy place! O home divinely fair!
    And we, God’s little ones, abiding there.
  • A long, long road I traveled night and day,
    And sought to find within myself some way,
    Aught I could do, or feel to bring me near;
    Self effort failed, and I was filled with fear,
    And then I found Christ was the only way
    That I must come to Him and in Him stay.
  • O wondrous place! O home divinely fair!
    And I, God’s little one, safe hidden there.
    Lord, as I dwell in Thee and Thou in me,
    So make me dead to everything but Thee;
    That as I rest within my home most fair,
    I’ll share my God in all and everywhere.

Verse of the Day

[Take Up the Cross and Follow Him] Then He said to them all, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me. For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will save it. — Luke 9:23-24 (NKJV)
