Psalm 84:1
“How amiable are thy tabernacles, O Lord of hosts!”
KJV
Read in Psalm 84Meaning
The psalm opens with longing for God's courts and presence, not with a promise that worship removes hardship.
Longing for God's dwelling
The worshiper longs for God's courts and blesses those who dwell in his house.
Read carefully
Psalm 84 includes pilgrimage through difficulty and does not promise exemption from suffering.
Reflection
Cultivate desire for God's presence rather than treating worship as a transaction.
