Home

B
ack before Christmas we changed this page to give you warm thoughts of home. It holds a special place in everyone's heart. I love the old George Carlin routine about the difference between football and baseball. The goal for football is to march your team downfield, methodically overtaking enemy territory… You’ve seen it, I’m sure. The goal for baseball is to go home…

Cue the singing birds and blooming flowers.

But home can be a tough place to be, with rampant abuse and difficult relationships. Home may not spark happy thoughts in your mind.

Our family moved out of our home in October of 2008. All of our stuff is still there. Beds, computers, iPods, furniture, books (ugh, my writing library), clothes, toys, bikes, snowblower (I don’t need that in Arizona), lawnmower, grill… You name it, we left it. And you know what? Those things don’t make a home. They might make it nicer and easier to function, but they don’t provide any kind of lasting peace or happiness.

Home is not just a state of mind or where the heart is. Home is what your heart longs for. Home is what we yearn for in the deepest part of our soul.

I'm hoping you will thank God for a home that will never be corrupted by moth, rust, or mold. A home that is to come after these days of just passing through are over.

May God give you a wonderful time at home, wherever you may happen to be today.

CBN News Story on the Fabrys

Heather Sells and a CBN News crew came to our house in September and videotaped this story about our family. It’s a six-minute piece that tries to encapsulate our lives in the last three years. We’re hoping it will reach more people who need to see it.
