Psalm 48 invites us to circle Zion, count its towers, and remember the place where God has made Himself known. What happens when a place we love cannot keep us safe? John, Ramona, and Paula pray this ancient song with Jesus, remembering the disciple who admired the Temple stones and Jesus’ warning that they would fall. The worshipers ponder God’s Persistent-Love and end by trusting God to guide them even to death. A prayer for gratitude, grief, and security when the structures around us change.
