"My soul longed and even yearned for the courts of the LORD; My heart and my flesh sing for joy to the living God. Even the sparrow has found a home, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may have her young--a place near your altar, LORD Almighty, my King and my God."
-Psalm 84:2-3
-Psalm 84:2-3
I love the imagery of the bird having a place near God's altar. God provides such a place for me because, now, His sanctuary is my own heart. I cannot get any nearer to God than that until He takes me home.
I am grateful that God is in each beat of my heart, each breath I take. If it feels as though He's not, I need only take in a deep breath which slows my heart rate so that I can once again be still and know that God is with me.
