"That was easy," I smiled. "Home was wherever my husband was." He included me in his 'business.' And I went just about everywhere he was stationed. We lived in many houses but they all became home whenever we were there together. There is a old slogan in military circles that says "Home is where the Army sends you." Well, actually, I know my "home is where Don is!" :o) I am a military chaplain's wife and often friends have asked if I missed being home when we moved around the globe. "That was easy," I smiled.

Very easy on the soul :-D<br /><br />Home is where my husband is...plain and simple. I don't feel quite right unless he is nearby (not to say I'm dependent on him or anything...just where he is, I am comfortable--doesn't matter the state or the city or the house)<br /><br />I would say that home is where God is since I don't feel comfortable unless I'm in fellowship with Him either...but God is everywhere so that would make home everywhere and that doesn't quite work... :-D (in)courage is a beautiful website!

I was interested to read about (in)courage and especially the description. I want to hear God's voice clearer!<br /><br />Home is my safety net, now more than ever. I am 6 months into a home dialysis journey, working towards a transplant, homeschooling my boys and creating a home full of love that they will remember more than interruptions and doctor's appointments!
