Psalm 24:3-4 (NIV)

or swear by a false god.

We find ourselves standing where we always hoped we might stand—out in the wide open spaces of God’s grace and glory, standing tall and shouting our praise.
Where would we be without Jesus?
Where are we now because of Jesus?
I ask these questions and invite you to pause and reflect on how your life has been changed since the first day that you trusted in Jesus. What is Jesus teaching you in this season?
Consider the awesome privilege that it is to be in the Lord’s presence. The fact that His Holy Spirit lives in us and we get to call God our Father.

Perhaps today you would like to write out your own psalm to God.
