Quote from C. S. Lewis
"These poets (the psalmists) knew far less reason than we for loving God. They did not now that He offered them eternal joy; still less that He would die to win it for them. Yet they express a longing for Him, for His mere presence... They long to live all their days in the Temple...Only there can they be at ease, like a bird in the nest (84:3). One day of these ' pleasures' is better than a lifetime spent elsewhere (84:10)"
