No place to call home?
We started with prayer, let everyone introduce themselves, sang some songs, and read a Psalm.
For the lesson, we read Luke 2 and Luke 9 - Luke 9:58 - and talked about how Jesus was born in a borrowed, smelly space. And later when Jesus is grown, it sounds like he has no real home either.
We talked about homelessness. We discussed what it was like to be without a home. Everyone shared their thoughts and experiences.
Then we went to John 14. "Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God[a]; trust also in me. 2 In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.
Jesus, who came to earth in a borrowed place, makes sure we know we are wanted and will be cared for forever.
Praise God.
