PSALM 87 (The Message)
Wow. This reminds me of just how beautiful a city Jerusalem is. Spread out before you as you approach it, in all its beauty. This Psalm then talks about the Church as a whole .. God's grace and salvation. What a beautiful blessing that is. The city of Jerusalem, just like the Church, and just like the transformed life, may have less-than-good moments but those cannot detract from the overall beauty they offer. The potential brought and bought by God's love.


1-3 He founded Zion on the Holy Mountain— and oh, how God loves his home!
Loves it far better than all
the homes of Jacob put together!
God's hometown—oh!
everyone there is talking about you!

4 I name them off, those among whom I'm famous:
Egypt and Babylon,
also Philistia,
even Tyre, along with Cush.
Word's getting around; they point them out:
"This one was born again here!"

5 The word's getting out on Zion:
"Men and women, right and left,
get born again in her!"

6 God registers their names in his book:
"This one, this one, and this one—
born again, right here."

7 Singers and dancers give credit to Zion:
"All my springs are in you!"
