among us – “The Word became flesh
and dwelt among us” – so that one day
the effects of a fallen and sinful and
imperfect world might be done away
with.
As we celebrate Christ’s first advent,
it would be proper and edifying for
us to look forward to Christ’s second
advent as well, where there won’t be
any need for nursing homes, or hospi-
tals, or medical centers, or hospices,
or funeral homes, because Christ has
conquered evil and death through his
birth, crucifixion and resurrection.
One day, through faith in Him, our
residents will be in their
TRUE HOME
with God, and no one will be able to
take them away from this home ever
again!
For me, this is the true meaning of
Christmas. One day, if we faithfully
abide with our Savior, we will all be
home for Christmas!
Revelation 21:3, 4 – “Now the dwell-
ing of God is with men, and he will live
with them. They will be his people,
and God Himself will be with them and
be their God. He will wipe every tear
from their eyes. There will be no more
death or mourning or crying or pain,
for the old order of things has passed
away.”
