Psalm 122
Chapter Summary
Pray for peace
In Bible times, people thought God lived in the temple. Only sometimes did they grasp the reality that God, as Solomon said, could not dwell in human-made dwellings. Today we know better, but still our church homes are very special to us. Pray for the peace of your church and your town.
