(Psalm 96) Cave-dwellers

For the Lord is great and greatly to be praised. He is to be feared above all gods. For all the  gods of the peoples are idols, but the Lord made the heavens. Honor and majesty are before Him, strength and beauty are in His sanctuary.

This is an eternal reality.  A brilliant light—ever shining—yet dimmed in this world by sin and death.  We are by nature pathetic cave-dwellers, as it were, afraid of the light and irrationally drawn to darkness.

The Lord is great.  He has wrought for us “so great a salvation”.  Come to the Light!
