Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you were not willing. The homes that remain in the park are really only shells of what they were when people lived in them. Even though they seem primitive in comparison to the homes of today, they still offered protection. They were filled with life, joy and sadness, and set in a truly beautiful place. We all seek home, a place where we are loved and protected, a place where we see beauty. Jesus offers us that home. He has offered his life for us. He made himself a refuge for us, even those of us who run away from him.
Prayer Jesus, For the home you give us, for the protection you offer, for your heart of love for us that weeps when we run away, we bow in gratitude at your gift of love. Bring us home and help us show others the way. Amen
