Gospel Reflections #793: One on One with God

Psalm 16:11 "I will look up to your face and be full; from your right hand I will receive everlasting joy."

This is a psalm of David rejoicing and praising God for His presence with him.

David chooses to ask God for help and ask for more, even when the situation in front of him feels like a crisis.

Even when he mourns, complains, and becomes emotional, he is confident and rejoices in his peace in God, confirming who God is to David.

One book said that the Most Holy Place is where God and we as individuals commune.

We can be confident of and rejoice in God's presence when we relate to and face God personally, one-on-one.

And we are transformed into a way of life that expresses the joy of living with God.
