“God be merciful unto us, and bless us; And cause his face to shine upon us; Selah.”
Psalm 67:1 KJV
The psalmist says, “God, keep us near your mercy-fountain and bless us! And when you look down on us, may your face beam with joy! Pause in his presence”. God’s face shines on us with the light of joy as He revealed to the priest to bless the people. “The Lord bless you and keep you; The Lord make His face shine upon you, And be gracious to you; The Lord lift up His countenance upon you, And give you peace.” Jesus called us His brothers and sisters with a smile! “His gaze swept across those gathered close, and Jesus smiled., ‘You, here, are My mother and My brothers!’” Our God is full of joy and He smiles! He wants us to be happy people. When the King smiles, there is life; His favor refreshes like a spring rain. Let’s be happy people who serve our joyful God even when He endured the Cross. Let’s look to Jesus, the Author and Finisher of our faith, Who for the joy that was set before Him endured the Cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the Throne of God. Amen!
