Delight in the Presence of God
Psalm 65:4
Blessed is the man whom you choose, and cause to approach to you, that he may dwell in your courts…


A nervous clergyman, who could only compose to advantage when absolutely alone and undisturbed, left his door unlocked, and his little three-year-old child softly opened the door and came in. He was disturbed, and a little impatiently asked, "My child, what do you want?" "Nothing, papa." "Then what do you come in here for?" "Just because I wanted to be with you," was the reply. To come into God's presence and wait before Him, wanting nothing but to be with Him — how such an hour now and again would rest us.
