Homecoming

The Third Sunday in Advent

I’ll bring home the homeless. In the very countries where they were hated they will be venerated. ~ Zephaniah 3:9b (MSG)

When Jesus arrived and saw a large crowd, he had compassion on them because they were like sheep without a shepherd. ~ Mark 6:34 (CEB)

KEY IDEA:
God has compassion on the homeless wanderers.
PRAYER:
Gracious Lord, I, like so many, am prone to wander. I've been among the spiritually homeless -- which is actually harder than being literally homeless. Yet you care about us. I can't understand why. No one else really cares. But you do. I'm so grateful. I'm going to live near you because you take good care of us. Amen.
