The Light

Psalm 89 says Blessed are those who have learned to acclaim you, who walk in the light of your presence, Lord. They rejoice in your name all day long;  they celebrate your righteousness.

Did you know that His presence can be with us, around us, and yet we don’t realize it?  In fact, we completely dismiss it and walk as though we’re alone?

This verse says the ones who are blessed are those who have “learned” to acclaim him, and those who “walk in the light.” That takes action on our part to recognize and move in His presence, not to sit unaware and apathetic.

God presence is with us.  He says this in his word.  But when we walk as though this isn’t true by complaining, disbelieving and even cursing His name, we are not doing ourselves any favors.  In fact, we’re missing out on a blessing.

And we’re missing out on a celebration that includes rejoicing.

I want to be found among those who are learning and walking in his presence, so that when he says rejoice and celebrate I hear it and enjoy the party.
