| 0:00.0 | Welcome to today's encouragement from our Daily Bread. |
| 0:08.3 | Today's reading is titled, Let Me Stay, and I'm Kirsten Holmberg. |
| 0:15.7 | As they made their way toward their car, Zander escaped his mother's arms and made a mad dash back toward the |
| 0:22.5 | church doors. He didn't want to leave. His mom ran after him and tried to lovingly wrangle her son so they could |
| 0:29.3 | depart. When his mother finally scooped four-year-old Zander back into her embrace, he sobbed and reached |
| 0:36.0 | longingly over her shoulder toward the church as they |
| 0:39.0 | walked away. Xander may have merely enjoyed playing with friends at church. But his enthusiasm |
| 0:46.5 | is a picture of David's desire to worship God in Psalm 27. Though he might have asked God to |
| 0:53.9 | thwart his enemies for his own comfort and security, |
| 0:57.0 | David wanted peace to prevail so that he could instead gaze on the beauty of the Lord |
| 1:04.0 | and to seek him in his temple. His heart's desire was to be with God, wherever he was, and to enjoy his presence. |

| 1:39.7 | In God, not the walls of a building, we find our safety and our greatest joy. |
| 1:51.4 | Today's Our Daily Read devotional scripture reading is from Psalm 27, verses 1 through 6. |
| 1:58.7 | The Lord is my light and my salvation. Whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold |
| 2:05.7 | of my life. Of whom shall I be afraid? When the wicked advance against me, to devour me, |
| 2:12.9 | it is my enemies and my foes who will stumble and fall. Though an army besiege me, my heart will |
| 2:19.8 | not fear. Though war break out against me, even then I will be confident. One thing I ask from |
| 2:27.5 | the Lord, this only do I seek, that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze on the beauty of the |
| 2:37.2 | Lord and to seek him in his temple. For in the day of trouble, he will keep me safe in his dwelling. |
