—Psalm 84:8-12
by: Jerry Johnson.
It is a challenge to serve in a ministry environment like the military chaplaincy where time is always important. Services and Bible studies have to be accomplished within a framework that is set by command policy. In our culture I also see this in church. Many start and end “on time,” because people are busy. Kids hate to be in a service where the preacher goes long. The Psalmist challenges our thinking. This is also one of my favorite praise choruses. Do we worship like a day in his courts is better than a thousand elsewhere or do we just go to say that we were in attendance?
