Home is More Than a Place

 

Today, I am reminded that home is not simply a beautiful building filled with beautiful things. Yes, it’s wonderful to have a space that looks lovely, smells amazing, and feels like a sanctuary—but true home goes deeper than that.

Home is found in the attitude of the people we live with, in the way we treat those we come in contact with each day. It’s not only about the physical environment we create for others—it’s about the emotional environment we provide.

So I ask you (and I ask myself, too):

• How are we towards the people around us?
• How do we treat our family, our kids, our neighbors?
• Do we make people feel valued, or do we make them feel like they are an inconvenience?
• Do we offer smiles, kindness, and grace—or do we let stress and frustration take over our interactions?

The truth is, the greatest impact we can make in someone’s life often comes down to one simple thing: our attitude.

Even when life isn’t going the way we want, we can still choose to show kindness. And sometimes, that kindness can literally be the difference between life and death. There are people carrying heavy emotional pain, people who are not strong enough to handle constant disrespect, bickering, and being put down.

That’s why we must be intentional in our words and actions. We never know how deeply someone might need the kindness we show.

Today, I want to encourage all of us (myself included) to remember this truth:

We will not be here on this earth forever. Our time in this physical body is limited. So while we are here, let’s use our lives wisely—by being kind, loving, and life-giving toward others. Let our presence be healing for those around us. Let us allow God to use our energy, our words, and our actions to be the light and the healing someone has been praying for.

✨ Today, let’s go out there and be the healing that changes everything for somebody. ✨

Thank you for reading today—and remember, don’t let anybody steal your joy. 💛
