Stolen Homes

Home—for many, it is a place of refuge, protection, privacy, and comfort. But what happens when that home is stolen? In Pakistan, the homes of impoverished Christians were taken from them. Destitute Christians had their homes occupied by Muslim land-grabbers, who attacked with guns and clubs and also desecrated the Christian’s religious literature. Because these land-grabbers are wealthy and influential, they may get away with what they have done. One Pakistani explains that Muslims have tried “many times to occupy Christian homes and sell them to other Muslim men using fake documents.”

I am reminded that through Jesus we have a Home that can never be stolen from us.

"Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also. And you know the way to where I am going." Thomas said to him, "Lord, we do not know where you are going. How can we know the way?" Jesus said to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” (John 14:1-6)
