Do we not yearn to be fully ourselves " the original work of art each has the potential to be? Homes for the Heart reasons that four nurturing places support this life-long pilgrimage: a daily residence, a "home away from home" where intentional reflection can nourish our spirits, a third place gracefully discovered and continuing to beckon our return for sabbath re-creation, and"deepest of all"our own hearts. Place becomes supportive in the pilgrimage of becoming when gentle reflection follows encounter"a process modeled in this book. Each entry consists of a poetic reflection on a variety of meetings and insights, with two brief Scripture passages to enrich and deepen reception in the heart. Entries range from serious to whimsical, under such titles as Intercessions Automated, Cardboard Tomatoes, Sunlight Tracing Sand, and Meditation to the Rescue.
