They make it a place of springs…
O Lord Almighty! My soul yearns, even faints,
for the courts of the Lord;
my heart and my flesh cry out
for 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,
O Lord Almighty, my King and my God.
Blessed are those who dwell in Your house;
they are ever praising You.
Blessed are those whose strength is in You,
those who have set their hearts on finding You.
When they walk through the Valley of Weeping,
they make it a place of springs;
the autumn rains also cover it with pools.
They go from strength to strength,
till each appears before God in Zion.
Hear my prayer, O Lord God Almighty;
listen to me, O God…
Better is one day in Your courts
than a thousand elsewhere;
I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God
than dwell in the homes of the wicked.
For the Lord God is a sun and shield;
the Lord bestows favor and honor;
The Lord will withhold no good thing
from those who do what is right.
O Lord Almighty,
You bless everyone who trusts in You.
Psalm 84
This is a combination of the New International Version, New Living Translation, and the Contemporary English Version. I also made some minor changes, such as, “set their hearts on pilgrimage” was changed to “set their hearts on finding You” (verse 5).

We are not here to develop a spiritual life of our own, or to enjoy a quiet retreat. We are here to have the full realization of Jesus Christ, for the purpose of building up his body.Am I building up the body of Christ, or am I only concerned about my own personal development? The essential thing is my personal relationship with Jesus Christ — “… that I may know Him.” (Philippians 3:10). To fulfill God’s perfect design for me requires my total surrender–complete abandonment of myself to Him. Whenever I only want things for myself, the relationship is distorted. And I will suffer great humiliation once I come to acknowledge and understand that I have not really been concerned about realizing Jesus Christ Himself, but only concerned with knowing what He has done for me.My goal is God Himself, not joy and peace,Nor even blessing, but Himself, my God.…
