[Lord, You have been our dwelling place in all generations…from
everlasting to everlasting Psalm
90:1-2
During this season of reflection and renewal, join me, and let's
explore God’s Presence, our dwelling place. Are you dwelling in the presence of
God? ~ Donna Howell Oswalt]
“And how blessed
all those in whom You live, whose lives become roads You travel; They wind through
lonesome valleys, come upon brooks, discover cool springs and pools brimming
with rain! Psalm
84:5-6 MSG
This Psalm begins, “How lovely are Your dwelling places, O LORD!”
Immediately we sense beauty and peace in the presence of God. In reading Psalm
84, the calm without chaos reveals the world’s busyness; the joy inside the
praises draws us into His presence. Our spirits find blessing after blessing as
we linger, as we pray, as we worship the Living God.
Our journey with Jesus is a pilgrimage that takes us to
mountain tops of joy, through valleys of sorrow, around and through unmapped
territory that challenges our faith. Experiences chase us through lush forests into
barren deserts where joy meets sorrow, laughter greets tears, and celebrations
complete difficulties. Along all these paths, we always discover places of
blessing when God abides with us. Lord, Your
Glory lights my path. Whether I feel as if I am drowning or dodging, dancing or
drifting, how lovely are Your dwelling
places! Count me alive in
Christ. Traveling with You, I go from strength to strength. - dho
