Psalms 84:1-2,10
Psalms 84:1-2 The Message (MSG)
What a beautiful home, GOD-of-the-Angel-Armies! I’ve always longed to live in a place like this, Always dreamed of a room in your house, where I could sing for joy to God-alive!
Psalms 84:10-12 The Message (MSG)
One day spent in your house, this beautiful place of worship, beats thousands spent on Greek island beaches. I’d rather scrub floors in the house of my God than be honored as a guest in the palace of sin. All sunshine and sovereign is GOD, generous in gifts and glory. He doesn’t scrimp with his traveling companions. It’s smooth sailing all the way with GOD-of-the-Angel-Armies.

God of Heaven’s Armies, you find so much beauty in your people! They’re like lovely sanctuaries of your presence.
