「I was glad when they said to me,

　"Let us go into the house of the Lord."」　Amen.

　At that time, it was customary to make three pilgrimages a year. It was not easy for those who were far from Jerusalem.However, whether they were family, relatives, or acquaintances, someone invited them saying, "Let's go into the house of the Lord." At that time, my heart rejoiced.I can imagine such a scene. “The house of the Lord” refers to the temple. Today, the group of people who believe in Jesus is "the house of God" and "the house of prayer." 　

May the joy of the Lord become my joy today as well.

God bless you.   See you tomorrow.
