The Joy of Worship in the Temple
Psalm 84:1-2
How lovely is your dwelling place, O Lord of hosts!
My sole longs, indeed it faints for the courts of the Lord;
my heart and my flesh sing for joy to the living God.

Jesus Christ visited multiple temples to learn, preach and praise his father, the God Almighty.  Even as a boy, Jesus stay in Jerusalem within a temple for three days, before his parents found him.  He said to them, “Why were you searching for me?  Did you not know that I must be in my Father’s house?”

We utilize St Andrew Lutheran Church to learn, preach and praise our Lord, Jesus Christ.  It is our temple.  Many members have called it our second home.  Jesus Christ also visits us within St Andrew.  I believe he visits during all activities within our church, whether that is a Baptism, Wedding, Confirmation, Christmas service, Easter service or any Saturday/Sunday service.

If you are searching for Jesus Christ, look for his dwelling place; a temple, a church and/or St Andrew Lutheran Church.  For in these place, we can sing for joy and praise the Lord Jesus Christ.

God Bless you all,
Steve Haller
