SANCTUARY (I AM HOME)

At the core of every human heart is a deep longing to be seen, known, and loved. But so often, we find ourselves caught up in comparison, confusion, lies, and the constant pressure to perform. "Sanctuary (I Am Home)" was written as an invitation to rest in the heart of God — a place of refuge, safety and belonging. A place where we are truly home and truly free.
