Surely goodness and mercy

Will follow me

All the days of my life

And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever

King David/Ps 23

I have long held the belief that it is very possible that Jesus was being quite literal when he told his listeners that we all had to “be converted” to be like little children to enter into his kingdom

Heaven is where we will “play until Someone tells us to stop”

And Someone never will

He delights in his little ones

So when Jesus addresses “our Father” who is in heaven

He is defining in both directions

A God who makes a place home

Home a place inhabited by love.

Bring your friends with you

Make heaven crowded.
