First, I never expected to be here in Bremen at this stage in my life. Honestly, I worried for a long time what people must think of me still living here in this town - that I must be some kind of failure or bum or something.
Second, in my mind, somehow by not owning a house, I always had a quick way out. Granted, it is not like a house ties a person down permanently. However, there is just something about owning a home that seems to convey a sense of commitment. Me, I wanted to have quick way out - didn't want to have any obligations.
Well, after some serious reflection both of these points dissipated and now almost seem absurd. This lack of commitment, though, reminded me of these words from Revelation 3:16:
So, because you are lukewarm—neither hot nor cold—I am about to spit you out of my mouth.

Hey, it's been awhile. Don't pretend that you don't know who this is. I want a phone call so we can catch up and hang out. You've never even seen my house, and now I'm trying to sell it. Guess after reading this you won't be buying. :)
