We Will Go To The House Of The LORD

Hello! and happy good mid-week to all of us, GUYS.   For our "food for the soul" this Wednesday:

THE GOOD NEWS (27 April 2016)

"I rejoiced with those who said to me,
'Let us go to the house of the LORD!'
And now we have set foot
within your gates, O Jerusalem!

Jerusalem, just like a city,
where everything falls into place!
There the tribes go up,
the tribes of the LORD, the assembly of Israel,
to give thanks to the LORD's name,
There stand the courts of justice
the offices of the house of David."
- Psalm 1232:1-5

The Temple At Jerusalem In Time Of JESUS

(A cry of enthusiasm and joy of a pilgrim arriving at the Temple.  Admiration for the building, joy in seeing the crowd, and something deeper: a happiness in sharing the experience with other believers.

The Temple is the sign of GOD's presence among HIS people, JESUS found HIMSELF there with HIS FATHER.  For centuries, Christian pilgrims have walked thousands of kilometers to find the places where GOD has revealed HIMSELF, Compostello, Lourdes, Fatima or Medjugorje.  It is a fact that true worshipers will worship the FATHER in spirit and truth [John 4:21], but they are still flesh and blood and GOD often waits for them at the end of a march without which their effort would not have been a real one.  Prayer of the believer who admires the presence of GOD in the Church, and also of those who seek the joy that accompanies faith.)
