Thoughts on Today's Verse.... As we continue reflecting on the call to worship in Psalm 100, we realize that today's exhortation comes from the days when God's physical Temple was in Jerusalem. For us, God's New Covenant people, God's Temple is Jesus' church (1 Corinthians 3:16) as well as our physical bodies (1 Corinthians 6:19). Let's joyfully celebrate God's goodness as we thank him with others in our church family when we gather to worship as a church family. Let's also glorify God with our bodies surrendered wholly to him (Romans 12:1-2; 1 Corinthians 6:20) as we live intentionally, in holiness, to honor and worship God in every area of our lives (Hebrews 12:28-13:16)! Let's give thanks and praise God's name in public, in private, and in the community. Let's each love and worship our God with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength (Matthew 22:18-20).
