“I’m asking God for one thing, only one thing: To live with him in his house my whole life long. I’ll contemplate his beauty; I’ll study at his feet.”
Psalm 27:4 MSG – A verse of the day from the Bible presented in Eugene Peterson’s contemporary version called The Message. Accompanied by a personal reflection below.
It is indeed fascinating to learn of the Psalmist’s great love for the Almighty. This is not some bland and dry announcement of love, nay, it is a passionate and vehement declaration of adoration. And since one lifetime isn’t enough, the Psalmist wishes for an eternity to live with Him, contemplating His beauty. Can you do that? Could you possibly get in that zone where you think you might have perhaps a fraction of such a passion for God? Make it real, won’t you, think of God as the greatest lover of your life — for life.
Dear Simmilu, Beautiful thoughts and explaination. Love and blessings, Daddy
