I am coming home.
I am coming home to celebrate the most incredible gift with you.
I wonder how I will be received.
Will there be room at the inn?
At the table?
In your heart?
Real space that looks past all my shame, all my failings, seeing me as an unblemished child in the manger wrapped in bands of cloth.
Will you look at me again this way?
This is the best gift you could give me.
I am coming home.
