Thoughts and Commentary on Today's Reading   

After the epic intensity of Psalm 83, Psalm 84 is a refreshing call to praise and a deeper commitment. Psalm 84:10 gives a beautiful perspective for why we should choose to love and serve Yahweh, even if it costs us everything. Yahshua truly is the Pearl of great price, Who is of such great value that losing everything of this world is a small price to pay in exchange for the blessing of gaining a real relationship with Him.

As Moses once determined, it is even better to suffer affliction as a friend of God than it is to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season (Hebrews 11:24-25).
Psalm 84:10 "For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand. I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness."
