Tuesday Scripture and Prayer: Psalm 24
BREAKING NEWS: This is God's Place
------------------
The earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof;
the world, and they that dwell therein.
For he hath founded it upon the seas,
and established it upon the floods.
Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord?
or who shall stand in his holy place?
Those that have clean hands, and a pure heart;
who have not lifted up their soul unto vanity,
nor sworn deceitfully.
They shall receive the blessing from the Lord,
and righteousness from the God of his salvation.
-------------------
We're climbing mountains together.
Covid mountains.
Peaks of prejudice.
Foothills of frustration.
Paths of fear and anger.
Not everyone is going to get to the top.
On this climb, God blesses those who have a pure heart--
And that is a gift only God can give.
----------------------
Create in me a clean heart , O God
And renew a right spirit within me.
