Happy Hump Day!
First things first, did you enter to win $235 to ASOS for your summer must-haves? If not, click here.
The middle of the week has come quickly due to the long holiday weekend. It is so welcomed.
I have finished moving into our new space and I am beyond thrilled to be done.
A nuance is the cleaning, unpacking, and the fact once you get to crunch time there is no time for procrastination any longer! Haha, I am sure I am not the only one who procrastinates especially when it comes to moving, am I?
But there are a few things you tend to think on when you move on from something.
Have you ever noticed?

Have you ever noticed?
How the house you leave has never been that clean since you moved in? :)
Or that it no longer feels like a home?
Yes, cliche - but home is definitely where the heart is.
Which leads me to believe,
home is found on the inside.
Wherever me and my family and friends can be together, feeling safety, security, warmth, love.
Sometimes I drive past our old house that we grew up in, and it no longer has that warm welcoming feeling like it did to me for so many years.
Why is that?
That street still holds those memories of bike races, basketball games, carnival games, secret girls clubs, swimming, and jumping on the trampoline with all the neighborhood kids.
It screams youth, scary stories, riding bikes to places we weren't supposed to be...
It all comes flooding back to me when I drive down that old street.
But, still it doesn't feel like it used to be.
It doesn't feel alive anymore.
It doesn't feel like home.

Where we are now feels like home.
I thank God for discovering home is always with me.
Home is where I bring it. Home is with Him.
And they both live inside of me.
I know that is why we discover that Christ lives within, and He is always with us. (Galatians 2:20)
You don't find Him in a church building because He lives there - it's because of those, even you, who brought Him with. I think that's a pretty amazing discovery.
Have you ever visited an old home you lived in or grew up in?
What are some of your biggest pains when moving?
Comment below, I'd love to hear.
When we share our thoughts we find more things in common than differences. :)
