Lord, Your love is like a giant house, and I get to live there for free. When I am scared at night, I am still in the house. When I am happy at recess, I am in the house. When I am at school or sleeping at a sleepover, the house is still there around me. Thank You that nothing can make me leave. Even my worst day cannot push me out. Amen.
