November 29, 2020"Better is One Day: Home is Where Your Heart Is" Psalm 84 by Pastor Kevin Dibbley

It’s a strange Thanksgiving weekend coming up - unlike any other in most of our memories. That is why this Sunday’s message from Psalm 84 is so timely! In Psalm 84, the psalmist longs to be with God’s people going up to worship at the Temple. The annual Jewish festivals provided great opportunities to be together, to rejoice, to celebrate and to remember God’s faithfulness. One author wrote, “Longing is written all over this psalm.”

The psalmist groans that he cannot go to celebrate in Jerusalem with God’s people. While many of us are unable to be with family or are unable to join for corporate worship this Thanksgiving, we will find that this passage provides enormous hope, wisdom, and comfort. The longing of Psalm 84 really reflects the longing for heaven. We long for the day when we can be in God’s presence and away from the suffering, sickness, and sin of this world. Tune in online or come on Sunday and join us as we consider how to find joy when we long to be with God’s people in the joy of God’s presence.
