Psalms 84:3

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Psalms 84:3. Yea, the sparrow hath found an house, -

She is such a bold bird that she comes and picks up a crumb or two even in the courts of God’s house; so, Lord, let me be one of thy sparrows today:

" Yea, the sparrow hath found an house," -

Psalms 84:3. And the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, even thine altars, O Lord of hosts, my King, and my God.

God’s house is dear to us for the benefit that it is to ourselves, but it is still dearer to us for our children’s sake, as a nest where we may lay our young. What a double mercy it is when young people love to come with their parents to the house of God!
