Dave Edlers Ramblings

We have a fun thing going on in our house. People come here and relax. They come a spend the night and sleep like babies. It is a cool thing. This last weekend we had a friends teenager come and spend the night while they went on a anniversary over night. She had not been sleeping well and that night at our house slept great. Our grandkids come over and take naps, they sleep all afternoon. Our home is a refuge. A quite place. A place to shutdown.
Psalm 26 declares, “O Lord, I love the habitation of Your house and the place where your glory dwells.” Years ago as we moved into this house, and every house we have ever been in, we walked the house and prayed over it and anointed it with oil. Oil is a symbol of the Spirit of God. Just a silly little act of obedience to us. A silly act to others. But the truth for us is that people come here and feel peace. They may struggle to sleep in other places but sleep like babies here. I love the habitation of the Lord, the place His glory dwells. (By the way, I have been praying for years that the same glory would dwell in my entire valley)
