“Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him.” Ephesians 3:17 (NLT)

Christ will make his home in your hearts

Lord Jesus, come live with me.
I want You to feel welcomed in my heart.
To find a warm inviting place to dwell.
To be so close to the center of my being.
To make a home in my heart.
Lord Jesus, I put out the welcome mat of trust and watch for Your arrival.
I am in awe and humbled that You actually want to reside within me.
I anticipate light, laughter, and lots of love to fill every chamber of my heart. I don’t want to hide anything from You.
Come and stay awhile. No, what I mean to say is: come and stay with me eternally.
Not as a guest, but reside here forever.
My home. Your home. One.
My heart. Your heart. One.
May our hearts beat as one.
