Peaceful Dwelling Places

My (twin) coworker Steven loves to quote Isaiah 32:18:

My people will live in peaceful dwelling places
in secure homes,

in undisturbed places of rest.

That's my prayer for our house on this day after Labor Day, for the school year, that this house will be a peaceful dwelling place, secure and undisturbed, a place of rest.

We all have somewhat stressful lives outside of the house: work, school, clients, ministry students, and customers. We do important work, we often work long hours, our hearts often have a hard time leaving work.

But this house is a place of renewal and rest.

Thank you God!
