Coming home. There’s nothing like it in the world. You can travel the world over, but having a home that beckons you to return can do wonders for your soul.
I remember the feeling. It’s like it was yesterday, however it was over 20 years ago. The year had been a hard one. Work was scarce, and the small town I lived in offered little in the way of opportunities, so I struck out for the west. I had always been told that higher paying jobs were not found in the south, so off I went, in search of more.
When I saw the mountains stretched out before me, I knew. I had found home. God’s creation was a wonder to behold. My eyes never grew tired of the beauty that surrounded me.
I often wondered what might have become of me if I hadn’t taken that chance. I’m glad I took it.
Don’t ever fear the unknown. Just take a step into it and see if you aren’t amazed!
