“Praise ye the LORD. I will praise the LORD with my whole heart, in the assembly of the upright, and in the congregation.” – Psalm 111:1
Are you imitating the words of King David in Psalm 111:1?
You can’t do it in front of a television while watching your favorite preacher.
You can’t do it at the ball field watching your favorite child.
You can’t do it sitting in your boat waiting for a bite.
You can’t do it while doing laundry.
You can’t do it reading a devotional while drinking your morning coffee.
You can’t do it while listening to the radio as you make pancakes.
You can’t do it in a hotel room while on vacation.
You can’t do it taking a morning run.
You can’t do it out in the forest while waiting for a 10-point buck to walk by.
You can’t do it in your bed on your only day off.
So, how does one imitate the words of David in Psalm 111:1?
Simple. You go to church.
Hope to see you there!
I love all the other places we can be alone with the Lord (solitude is very important for me personally) but there is just something powerful and needful about the #gatheringtogether and the #oneanothers. (Not that those will show up anywhere from this comment, but I did retweet your post!!)
Cool! Thanks!
