"My soul longs, yes, faints for the courts of Jehovah God," Psalm 83:2.
With all my being I sing for joy to you, O God of armies! Your home is so lovely - even sparrows find a place to live in your courtyards. Swallows find shelter for their little ones right there! Lord, you alone are my King. You are my God. Everyone who lives with you is amazingly blessed! They ever thunder your praise in song! You're breathtaking! (I have to pause and take a breath, here). That's why I long to live right with you! Everybody who's set their path to you, whose strength is you - they're flooded with your blessing. Like overflowing pools of fresh spring water. You're my shield. One day, dear God, one day with you is better than a thousand anywhere else. (But one day with you is a thousand years anywhere else!) You are my sun, my shield. How blessed - O how blessed is anyone who trusts in you!
With a brother or sister today we sing praise to our God. And, together, we give thanks that God brings us home with Jesus, our Lord, our Savior.
