Joy in Serving

Psalm 100:3  

"Know ye that the LORD he is God: it is he that 

hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are 

his people, and the sheep of his pasture."

     If we could enter into the spirit of this Psalm, every day would be a Thanksgiving Day. The Psalmist invites all the earth to enter into the courts of God’s house with joyful songs. In many of the Psalms, the weeping prevails over rejoicing. But this Psalm is full of gladness. The reason for this gladness is: We are His: His by creation, by providence, and by grace; and His also by the glad consecration of our hearts to His service. We belong to Him by right; it is for us to see to it that we are also His by choice. And His ownership involves His shepherd care. We are His flock; it is for Him to lead us into green pastures and beside still waters.
    This Psalm reveals the true genius of religion. We cannot be satisfied till all men share our knowledge of the love of God. There is nothing which will better promote the true happiness and gladness of mankind. 
Amen!
