“Lord, this is the people that longs to see your face.”
-Psalm 24
How is “longing” unique from other similar verbs such as wanting, hoping, or desiring?
Imagine telling the Lord in prayer that you personally long to see His face. How does this personal expression relate to the more communal expression (“people”) shared in the Psalm response?
When you think of the Lord’s face, what images come to mind?
Lord, I long to see your face. Please help me to see it in the faces of those in my community and beyond. Amen.
