Is God Really That Good?

I read Psalm 84 seven days in a row. Let it ruminate in my mind. Plant itself deep in my soul.

How lovely is your dwelling place, Lord Almighty! My soul yearns, even faints, for the courts of the Lord; my heart and my flesh cry out for the living God.

Blessed are those whose strength is in you, whose hearts are set on pilgrimage.

Better is one day in your courts than a thousand elsewhere.

(vv 1,5,10)

As the words settled in, I found myself wondering what a pilgrim heart looks like. And what is it about God that makes one day with Him better than thousands somewhere else?

I was preparing for some devotions I was writing for the devotional blog Everyday With God. We’re talking about God’s definition of better this month, and I want to invite you to join us.

Then come back tomorrow for some more thoughts and some discussion on God’s definition of better and more.

See you tomorrow…
