For my absence of the last several weeks,
I offer you this short piece. Perhaps I can
now get back on schedule. For the latest

THE COMFORTS OF HOME
by J. Randal Matheny

My bed supports my body with deeper rest,
No table holds a finer fare than mine.
To cleanse and wash my face my bath is best;
My chair gives greater comfort to recline;
But these can never make a home nor define
The joy I feel at walking through my door.
For home's my wife and children whom I adore,
Where Jesus reigns and we, for blessing, are blessed.
