Welcome Home!

Deep within
comes the longing
to be home.

But who am I?
Unworthy,
soiled
and selfish...

Yet I hear
the call to come -
not just the call of my heart,
but the call of the Father.

And as I come
I see a cross -
the Son has died,
the price is paid -
and a mat is out
and arms of love -
"Welcome home!"
