Psalms 84:5

Psalms 84:5. Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee; in whose heart are the ways -

Or," Thy ways." It is not every man who is in God’s house who is blessed; the blessed man is the one who has brought his heart with him. It is not every man who is in God’s ways who is blessed; but the man whose strength is in those ways, who throws his whole heart and soul into the worship. Half-hearted worship is dreary work, it is like a blind horse going round in a mill; but when the heart is in the service, we feel then as if we could dance for joy in the presence of the Lord our God: "Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee, in whose heart are thy ways."
