Psalm 27:1, 4-5
In the midst of the holiday hustle and bustle, could you be satisfied with just one thing? This season seems to celebrate more, more, more. But what if there was just one thing on your Christmas list; just one wish your heart could make. What would it be? Good health? Enough money? A life companion? World peace? The psalmist wishes for just one thing: to be fully immersed in God's beauty and truth. "One thing I asked of the Lord: to live in the house of the Lord all the days of my life" (Psalm 27:4). Perhaps he imagines that doing so would lead his every action to reflect God's heart of love and mercy; that his every thought would center on the good and upright, every night's sleep be free from fear and worry. Perhaps if we pursued God in the same way we wish for so many other things, we would be less consumed with the thought of more, more, more and instead find peace in the one who truly satisfies our deepest need. Give me a laser-like focus on you, O Lord, so that my life might revolve around and be guided by your love. Amen. Shelley Cunningham Psalm 27:1, 4-5 (NRSV) 1 The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? 4 One thing I asked of the Lord, that will I seek after: to live in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to inquire in his temple. 5 For he will hide me in his shelter in the day of trouble; he will conceal me under the cover of his tent; he will set me high on a rock.
