"Homesick for a home I don't know how to find."

After the ambulance rushed a staff member to the hospital to treat her horribly broken leg, a bystander asked Sarah, "Is she going to be okay?"


It wasn't long before Sarah was hearing about Hannah's life story: her abusive father who left them, how she grew up sleeping on the floor next to her mom and sister who shared a twin bed, and her depression.


These experiences led her to get a new tattoo (symbolically placed across her heart): "Hireath" meaning "Homesick for a home I've never been to and don't know how to find."


Sarah was reminded of Jesus' words, which she shared:

"In my Father's house are many rooms...I go to prepare a place for you...And you know the way...I am the way."


And then asked, "I wonder if you're homesick for God?"
