Where the Lord Dwells
More modern translations of The Lord's Prayer read, "Our Father in heaven." Traditional versions read, "Our Father, who art in heaven." Something I like about the traditional is the word who. The Father is not a force, but a person. Spirit, not human, but one person of the Trinity. We are related to him. We can trust him.
The Father dwells in a realm untainted by sin, a paradise brimming with beauty, goodness, truth, and love. Shalom. It's a place, a home, we innately long for.
