Do you want a house for your soul? What is the price for this house? The price for the true house where my soul belongs is much less than my pride wants to pay - it is free, without money, without price. Ah but I still want to pay something. Is this the same for you? You want to be at home with your Maker and yet you feel like you must earn it. You want to win Christ for yourself. Then you cannot have this heavenly house because it is without price. Would I like to have the Masters house on lease for all eternity? Will you take Jesus and live in Him?
This house is filled with all we could ever need and want, it is filled with riches more than I could spend as long as I live. Here I have intimate communion with Christ and I get to feats on His love. Here are tables well stored with food for you to live on forever. In it, when weary, you will find rest for your soul with Jesus and from it you can look out and see heaven. Will you have this house? There is a key. The key is to come to Jesus. But you say, "I am too dirty for this house." Do not worry, there are new clothes for you inside. If you feel guilty and condemned then go to Jesus and He will make you good enough for thus holy house. He will wash you and you will be able to sing, "we dwell in Him."
Believer, you are very happy to have such a place to live in. You are privileged for you have a strong habitation in which to live all the days of your life. Dwelling in Christ we have not only a strong house but an eternal one. As this world and all its ways melt away like a dream our house will live on and stand more unmoved than marble and granite. Self existing like God Himself for our house is God himself. Dwell in Him.
