Last week I got a text from a new friend asking me, "Where do you love?" I knew it was an auto-correct error, but it made me think... Where do I love?
Is my home a place where I cook and clean and sleep or is it a place where I love? Is it a place where I love the ones closest to me and reach out to those far away, or is it a place where I retreat to myself. Do I spend more time on Facebook than I do loving? Am I more concerned about the weeds in the yard or about the love in the room? If the beds are made and the dishwasher is unloaded, but I have not love, I have gained nothing. If my kids' rooms are clean and I serve gourmet meals, but I have not love, no one will look forward to coming home.
Lord, I don't just want my house to be the place where I live. I want it to be the place where I love.
