Psalm 87 - Day 87

Of the Sons of Korah. A psalm. A song.
1 He has founded his city on the holy mountain.
2 The LORD loves the gates of Zion
   more than all the other dwellings of Jacob.
3 Glorious things are said of you,
   city of God:[
a]
4 “I will record Rahab[
b] and Babylon
   among those who acknowledge me—
Philistia too, and Tyre, along with Cush[
c]
   and will say, ‘This one was born in Zion.’”[
d]
5 Indeed, of Zion it will be said,
   “This one and that one were born in her,
   and the Most High himself will establish her.”
6 The LORD will write in the register of the peoples:
   “This one was born in Zion.”
7 As they make music they will sing,
   “All my fountains are in you.”
Do you have a place you just love going? A place that makes you feel secure and safe? I wish I could find such a place like the Lord has in Zion. What a wonderful feeling it must be. It's hard to fathom a place like Zion today. It was blessed so much by God and children born there were clearly stated that they were born there. It's not like saying "My name is so-and-so and I was born at St. Vincent's."
