A Post-Creation Thought.

by Anna Webb

I was reading the blogs from this past week and I was reminded of this song. It is called ”My Home,” by Thousand Foot Krutch. I think it accurately describes the feeling that most of us (or maybe just I) get from Creation. So here goes:

My Home
by Thousand Foot Krutch

This place is many things, but i’d never call it home.
It’s just a building in a city,
everywhere I go.
This place is many things but i can’t call it home,
Home is the place you are, and I just wanna let you know
that i’ve done a few things i wasn’t proud of, 
I’ve said a few things that hurt you,
but you’re still the only one who fills me up,
and every night spent alone, was worth it.

You are my home,
You are my everything, when i feel so alone,
You are my home, you are my shelter,
when all my hope is gone

And i’ve seen many things
But they don’t look like home,
They’re just the bright lights from a city glowing all night long,
and ive seen many faces, but they all look the same,
Home is the place you are and i just wanna let you know,
that i’ve done a few things i wasn’t proud of,
I’ve said a few things that hurt you,
but you’re still the only one who fills me up,
and all the tears that we’ve shared were worth it.

You are my home,
you are my everything, when i feel so alone.
You are my home, you are my shelter
when all my hope is gone,
You are my home,
you are my everything, when i feel so alone.
You are my heart, you are the one.
when it all comes undone.

 

I always say that Creation is my home. But, honestly, the only reason I feel that way is because Creation is where I encounter Christ the most. And Christ is where my true home is. I just wanted to share that thought.
