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.

  • “I think of the love of God as a great river, pouring through us even as the waters pour through our ravine at floodtime. Nothing can keep this love from pouring through us, except of course our own blocking of the river. Do you sometimes feel that you have got to the end of your love for someone who refuses and repulses you? Such a thought is folly, for one cannot come to the end of what one has not got. We have no store of love at all. We are not jugs, we are riverbeds.” – Amy Carmichael

Verse of the Day

Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. — Philippians 2:9-11 (NKJV)
