Slow Down ~ Headed Home

Greetings Dear Reader,

As we slow down and try to adjust to the changes, the media ramps up the fear and warnings.  Store shelves are empty.  Large cities are seeing an uptick in violence.  Medical facilities are stressed.  It is the uncertainty that is triggering our fear.  It is the fear that is causing our loss of perspective.

We are all headed to the same destination.  Some will get there sooner than others.  Everyone will have the same barrier to pass.  The Father wants to know about our faith.  He wants to see our love for him acted out by that faith.  We are all headed home, Dear Reader.

If our path ends today or 100 years from now, we will all eventually step out of time and into that clearing at the end of the path where all that does not matter rolls away.  In that transition all that will remain is love.  Everything else is contained in time.  We will transcend time and the Father will show us all that is ahead.

Slow down and see the moments as they pass.  Spend them loving each other well.  Understand that we can control only our faith and our responses.  We cannot control the trouble or the world.  What we control is that only thing that will last; we control how well we love others and show the Father our love through that.

I do not know when it will be but I am going home.  This place is beautiful and bright, dark and dangerous, and long and lonely all at once.  What makes it bearable is the company of the Son we follow and you Dear Reader.  As my fellow traveler, my love for you is how I show my love for the Father.  I want to live this out in every moment.  Slow down and join me if you wish.  I am going to love you no matter what you choose.

I’m Going Home – Chris Daughtry

I'm staring out into the night
Trying to hide the pain
I'm going to the place where love
And feeling good don't ever cost a thing
And the pain you feel is a different kind of pain

I'm going home
Back to the place where I belong
And where your love has always been enough for me
I'm not running from
No, I think you got me all wrong
I don't regret this life I chose for me

But these places and these faces are getting old
So I'm going home

Well, I'm going home

The miles are getting longer it seems
The closer I get to you
I've not always been the best man or friend for you
But your love remains true
And I don't know why
You always seem to give me another try

So I'm going home
Back to the place where I belong
And where your love has always been enough for me
I'm not running from
No, I think you got me all wrong
I don't regret this life I chose for me
But these places and these faces are getting old

Be careful what you wish for
'Cause you just might get it all
You just might get it all
And then some you don't want

Be careful what you wish for
'Cause you just might get it all
You just might get it all, yeah

Oh, well I'm going home
Back to the place where I belong
And where your love has always been enough for me
I'm not running from
No, I think you got me all wrong
I don't regret this life I chose for me
But these places and these faces are getting old
I said these places and these faces are getting old
So I'm going home, I'm going home

Wishing you joy in the journey,

Aramis Thorn
