The Father's Delight and Shelter

Psalm 67 speaks to a truism that exists beyond the Christian faith; that our primary relationship shap us to go out into the world and shape it for good or for ill. Yet, Psalm 67 speaks to the fundamental Fathering relationship, that between us and God. It's for this reason that it begins with echoes of the great Aaronic blessing of Numbers 6 where the Lord blesses his people, keeps his people and makes his face to shine on his people. It is in living into this belovedness as the children of God that the nations will sing for joy and creation itself will find the end of its groaning for the sons and daughters of God to be revealed!
