“Most people have forgotten nowadays what a home can mean,
though some of us have come to realise it as never before.
It is a kingdom of its own in the midst of the world,
a stronghold amid life’s storms and stresses,
a refuge,
even a sanctuary.
It is not founded on the shifting sands of outward or public life,
but has its resting place in God,
for God gives it special meaning and value,
its own nature and privilege,
its own destiny and dignity”

(Dietrich Bonhoeffer;
A Wedding Sermon
from a Prison Cell,
May 1943)


Thank you Hannah for this contribution to my life.
How is it that I just want to give you a hug?
