Thanks so much for tuning into the Church of the City, New York podcast.

We are in a new series called God Comes Where He's Wanted, and we're studying the principles

behind revival and awakening and what it looks like to cultivate hunger and thirst for God. I hope this is a blessing to you

and it stirs up fresh desire to seek God in a new way this year. I also wanted to take a moment to say

thank you to everybody who's given to our Living the Liturgy campaign. So many folks who are outside of

New York but who consider themselves a part of our online family,

have been so generous. So if that's you, thank you so much. It has been really, really encouraging

to have all of the support so we continue to seek God and all he has for us here in the city.

We're going to jump back into the podcast, but thanks so much and grace and peace.

My whole being longs for you in a dry and parched land where there is no water.

I've seen you in the sanctuary and beheld your power and your glory.

Because your love is better than life, my lips will glorify you. I will praise you as long as I live, and in your name I will lift up my hands.

I will be fully satisfied, as with the richest of foods.

With singing lips, my mouth will praise you.

On my bed, I remember you. I think of you through the watches

of the night, because you are my help. I sing in the shadow of your wings. I cling to you,

your right hand upholds me. Those who want to kill me will be destroyed. They will go down to the depths of the earth. They will be

given over to the sword and become food for jackals. But the king will rejoice in God. All who swear by God
