Reflection on Psalm 24


Everything on this earth belongs to you Father

You made it all in splendour

The mountains are yours

and the plains as well,

the oceans and the beaches

the rivers and the creeks.

The birds of the air

the fish of the sea

the whales and dolphins

dugong and sharks-

all of these are yours

Every nation, every person

all belong to you.

Your image is all over us

and we are yours.

Besmirched, defaced,

horribly mutilated

is your image in many of us.

But you welcome us

into your family,

the royal family

So let us cleanse our hearts

let us seek God's forgiveness

and come into His presence.

Open the doors!

Raise the barriers!

Let the God of glory come in!

Let His Spirit rush through our meeting!

Let His grace restore us!

Holy Spirit Come!
