At a time when it is hard to find words, I will share the words from my devotional today.

"Here is God's promise:  '"Father of the fatherless and protector of widows is God in his holy habitation.  God settles the solitary in a home."' (Ps.68:5-6a)

"We can have the contentment of home right now, wherever we are, because home for us is wherever God has us.  In fact, home is more than this--home is Christ, who unites us to God our Father.  In this home alone can we find contentment because it is the only home that we will never have to leave." Lydia Brownback

So there is joy, heartache, pain, loss, persecution, excitement, disappointment, sorrow, praising, awe, wonder, brokenness, compassion, hope, grace and healing.  And in all these things....we are content, because we are home in Christ Jesus.
