We will have so much desperation that we will long for rest under in His house. We will only know His love and faithfulness calling when we are just coming home to our Fathers couch , from a life of sin and drudgery. In Him is absolute safety, He will speak to us so that we feel like a thousand angels are all around us fighting against the forces of evil, and clearing a path of love in front of us. Oh to be in His house from a life of sin. Oh how we are so prodigal in our distresses. In His house we are surrounded by the strongest fortress. Our crying out to him in such utter hopelessness brings about His abiding protection. We loose a sense of our difficulties when we find the Fathers room. We sense a lifting of our pain and suffering as we fall into His arms. In His house we only get hugged, and love chases us , and His faithfulness surrounds us. We could be in the worse of circumstances , and still lay in His arms in His house. There we feel so much of His presence that we are so free to feast at His table. He bids us to come and eat with Him. We get so much refreshment at His table that we forget the feast in front of us and feel His love, and glory falling down. There we know that He rules over all nations. THere we worship Him as He is exalted over all nations. There we feel our inability and our helplessness so that we are being under-girded by His love and we are being surrounded by His love as He works out His plan in the nations. There He gives us a sense of His perfect control even over the rulers of the earth. There we exist as people with so much difficulty, but we are exalting our loving Father.   Reply
