One thing have I asked of the LORD, that will I seek after: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to inquire in his temple.
If there was one verse that I would hold on to it would be Psalm 27:4. If there was one thing that I could say defined me it would be this reality found in this verse. I believe that there is a real place where we can dwell with The Lord in His house and find ourselves head over heels in love with the Creator all the days of our lives. There are so many distractions in this life. There is one reality that supersedes all the lesser realities. I am a lover of God, and He is a lover of my soul. I belong to Him, and He belongs to me. To gaze upon this beautiful God is all that I really desire. For when I gaze, I become fixated with the only perfect, holy, true, loving, and full of light being in the whole world and cosmos.
King David was on to something. There is a reason he gave himself to seeking The Lord and gazing on His beauty. All those who take the time to become gazers of the most amazing Creator will be transformed from this lowly world to a higher reality that is fit for eternity. We are created for more than this world. This world will leave us hanging dry. We must choose to behold the beauty of The Lord all the days of our lives. We must fixate ourselves upon the eternal glory that awaits all those who love their God with all they are, more than pleasure, and more than this world. Oh to be transformed, oh to be overwhelmed with this God! He is worth giving everything you have and everything you are.
