THAT HOUSE WAS A PERFECT HOUSE

Our home with Jesus is a perfect House, not because trials or dangers are never experienced, but because we have everything we need to face those trials and dangers.

It is an eternal resting place, a house built on everlasting principles, and one we are invited to reside in day after day. 5/7/26
