Make your home in me, as I make
mine in you….
The soil is fertile, the seed is
good and has received the life-giving water, died to itself and given rise to a
little plant… now it needs love, warmth and protection. It needs nourishment
and care to grow well and give much fruit in the long run. The Word of God, our
Lord Jesus, has found a fertile place in our hearts and has germinated there
with the help of the life-giving Spirit.
Now it needs the warmth of our hearts and the nourishment of our love
and care to grow and bear fruit in our life. Let us today strive to make a warm
home as the stable of Bethlehem in our hearts for the Lord to stay in comfort.
Let us empty ourselves of all the unnecessary dirt piled up there like
self-love, comforts and worldly desires and kindle the fire of love to make the
home of our hearts warm and welcoming.
