Day 8- Psalm 24




















Psalm 24

Of David. A psalm.

The earth is the LORD's, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it;
for he founded it upon the seas and established it upon the waters.
Who may ascend the hill of the LORD ? Who may stand in his holy place?
He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who does not lift up his soul to an idol or swear by what is false. He will receive blessing from the LORD and vindication from God his Savior.
Such is the generation of those who seek him, who seek your face, O God of Jacob.
Lift up your heads, O you gates; be lifted up, you ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in. Who is this King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle.
Lift up your heads, O you gates; lift them up, you ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in. Who is he, this King of glory? The LORD Almighty— He is the King of glory.

I had an interesting experience last night as I continue on my Lenten Pilgrimage. I had a difficult day. I came home from work tired, sad and feeling defeated. When I feel this way, I normally plant myself on the couch and try to escape reality through my favorite TV show. I have given up that indulgence as part of my desire to create space for God in my life. I found myself tempted and torn. After making a plethora of excuses in my head, I decided I could watch TV for 30 min. (Yes, I caved.) I turned on my MTV, and it was the Real World Denver. A show I normally enjoy watching. I watched for about 3 minutes and had a moment of realization. My life has been so much better without TV. This show is crap, and not at all what I need right now. I need my Father. So, I turned it off and went to the bedroom to read His Word. He spoke directly into my heart where I needed Him to. God is gracious and patient with me. I am so grateful! I hope for all of us at Blue Sky that we are experiencing this type of renewal in our daily journey with Christ. I love this community!
