Dwelling in God's House (Psalm 84:3-4)

Today's scripture: Psalm 84:3-4

When I started writing this devotional early this morning, I just couldn’t seem to find the words.

But then I read the verses again … And I landed on the word “house.” God’s house. And not what we often call the local church or His throne in heaven.

God’s house is anywhere He is. His house is this world He created. And His house is the universe—far beyond what we can see. And because He is everywhere, I can never be outside of His presence. I’m never alone.

There are days when I feel so very lonely. Often my days are spent alone, and there doesn’t seem to be anyone around. When I need prayer or to talk with someone, sometimes I don’t even know whom to call.

Then I remember: My God is with me. He never leaves me, never deserts me (Hebrews 13:5). He will always listen to me and hear my cries.

And I’m very blessed.
