Coming Home - Just As I Am...

Have you ever been homesick?

It's a hard thing to go through

When you're homesick

your world turns upside-down

and backwards. It can paralyze

you emotionally and keep you 

from enjoying the place

you are in. Homesickness

really is a longing for home.

There is another kind of

homesickness that can impact

our lives. It is spiritual

homesickness. God made us

for the purpose of knowing 

and enjoying Him--so when

we live our lives separated

from Him because of sin,

we experience spiritual

homesickness. We may identify

it as loneliness or lack of

fulfillment. But regardless of

what we call it, it is an

empty place within us that

only God can fill.

--Roy Lessin

"Look! I have been standing at the door,

and I am constantly knocking. If anyone

hears Me calling him and opens the door,

I will come in and fellowship with him

and he with me."

--Revelation 3:20 TLB

About Roy Lessin

He was led to the Lord by his father, Joseph, who was raised an orthodox Jew in the Bronx, New York. Joseph was forty years of age when he discovered a Gideon Bible in his hotel room in Las Vegas, Nevada. He had never read the Bible in English and started to read in the book of Genesis. When it came time to check out of the hotel, Joseph stole the Bible. He continued reading the Bible whenever he could. As he read the book of Isaiah, God opened his eyes to see that Jesus Christ was his Messiah.
