"going home"


I will briefly try to share what my husband and I have been going through for weeks...several years actually.  Trying to find where we should live after selling our house in Central Oregon.  We have gone from place to place all over...extended visits to our kids...friends...motels...never able to feel like anyplace is right.  Saturday we made an offer on a place out of sheer desperation and yet could not go through with it.  We are here in Portland with relatives and all our family is gathering for the marriage of our oldest son on Sat the 21st.  God has provided a wonderful place out in the country with friends of our daughter for us to stay this week...He has provided for us all along, but the displacement we have felt has not been easy to deal with. Sunday, after recanting our offer on this house the song "Two of Us" from the movie "I Am Sam" just dropped into my spirit. It was specific and very personal to us in all the obscure details of the poetry....just amazing!  Since we have no home and still have not a clue as to where that might be...I am wondering it the concept of "going home" in the song might have great significance.  I sure hope so.
