I long to dwell in your tent forever and take refuge in the shelter of your wings. Psalm 61:4If you've been following this blog for a while you've probably figured out that I hate moving.

Somewhere perfect, somewhere you are always satisfied with. Imagine not having to pick up your roots and drag them elsewhere ever again!

Ohhhh, the imaginings I could do on this image.
