born there

IMG_0712Psalm 87

Jerusalem is celebrated because of its glorious future.  It will some day be said that people from all the nations will be “born there.”  The psalm speaks in faith of a time when Jerusalem is seen as the center of what God is doing in the world, and that even its present Gentile enemies will proudly call it home.  The New Testament explains how this will happen.  Believers will be grafted into the olive tree of Israel (Romans 11). 

Thank you, LORD, for bringing us home to you.
