Who may climb the mountain of the Lord?
    Who may stand in his holy place?
⁴ Only those whose hands and hearts are pure,
    who do not worship idols
    and never tell lies. Psalm 24: 3,4

What does it mean to stand in His Holy Place? Is it something future, something present? Is it both?

Who may climb the mountain of the Lord?
    Who may stand in his holy place?
⁴ Only those whose hands and hearts are pure,
    who do not worship idols
    and never tell lies.

Who qualifies without the grace and mercy and forgiveness of Christ?

Who may climb the mountain of the Lord?
    Who may stand in his holy place? Psalm 24:3

The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it.
    The world and all its people belong to him.
² For he laid the earth’s foundation on the seas
    and built it on the ocean depths. Psalm 24:1,2

How does considering God as the creator of the world change your view of things?

The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it.
    The world and all its people belong to him. Psalm 24:1

Do you feel like you belong to God? In what way are you showing Him you are His?

and I will live in the house of the Lord
    forever. Psalm 23:6

What thoughts come to your mind as you think of the word “forever”?

and I will live in the house of the Lord
    forever. Psalm 23:6

What images does living in the house of the Lord evoke?

Wow! It seems like forever since I have had a moment to write! I have been away at a leadership training. Man! Is my brain full. I didn’t think it possible to have so much information and experience crammed into one twenty four hour period!

Here is my meditation on Psalm 23 for this evening.

Surely your goodness and love will follow me
    all the days of my life, Psalm 23:6

Does hearing that His goodness and love have been following you today redefine how you perceive the events of the last twenty four hours? How?

Surely your goodness and love will follow me
    all the days of my life, Psalm 23:6

What does life look like when love is following you?
