One Desire Among Many

My dear son,

One thing I desire is for you to share your life with me, talking over what is before you. On an ordinary morning, just as before an important decision, you can sit close and tell me what you are thinking.

Tell me what you hope to accomplish. I listen to the heart beneath those wishes, too. May the time you spend considering my kindness, asking questions, and listening become one of the dear joys of your life.

You can begin with a single plan for today. You need not leave with every question settled. Come freely, like a child at home in a parent's house. I delight in a life spent together with you.

With all my love,
Your Father

Psalms 27:4

WEB

4One thing I have asked of the LORD, that I will seek after: that I may dwell in the LORD’s house all the days of my life, to see the LORD’s beauty, and to inquire in his temple.

A short reflection

The psalmist expresses one great desire: to dwell in the Lord's house throughout his life, behold his beauty, and seek him in his temple.
