Mid-Day Thought: Better in His Presence

For a day in Your courts is better than a thousand. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of wickedness. -Psalm 84:10

Have you ever wonder why a person on drugs throws away their physical health, marital and family relations, jobs and careers, and all their monetary wealth and possessions? They give all that up just to feel that few moments of ectasy the drug gives. The problem drug addicts finds is the drug doesn't give the same effect it once did.

For Christians, to be in our Lord's prescence is the best feeling. For us, though being in His prescence doesn't cost us everything, but restores and keeps everything healthy and strong. Being in His presence is better than a thousand moments of anything; and serving Him in any capacity is better than any career found on earth. May He keeps us close and always keep our path brighly lit. Amen
