I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the Lord. – Psalm 122:1, KJV
I was glad to put on
my patent leather shoes, O God,
and go to your house,
where I sat in a little chair
and learned that Jesus loved me,
that you love everyone.
I kept going to your house,
gladly,
but I began to notice
how some people wanted
to close the doors,
to keep your house
to themselves.
Yet your love for all
is in the world,
is in the Word.
I dream of the day
when all your holy places
are like the hoped-for city
where all people will gather.
I will be glad to go there.
I want to be in whatever house you’re worshiping. Thank you for this.
