home

Spiritual disciplines such as prayer, fasting and caring are ways to help us return home. as we walk home we often realize how long the way is. but let us not be discouraged. Jesus walks with us and speaks to us on the road. when we listen carefully we discover that we are already home while on the way. H. Nouwen

John 14:23-27 -
Jesus replied, "If anyone loves me, he will obey my teaching. My Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him. He who does not love me will not obey my teaching. These words you hear are not my own; they belong to the Father who sent me.
"All this I have spoken while still with you. 26But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you. Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
