儿童解释

Imagine you're playing with your toys, and you have a big, beautiful dollhouse all to yourself. You think it's the safest place ever because no one else can come in or out. But your friend wants to play too and says, 'Hey, let's go play with that dollhouse.' That's like the LORD saying it's time to go check on this safe but isolated place.
