Commit this passage to memory:  “One thing I ask of the Lord, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord and to seek Him in his temple. 5 For in the day of trouble He will keep me safe in His dwelling;  He will hide me in the shelter of His tabernacle and set me high upon a rock. 6 Then my head will be exalted above the enemies who surround me; at His tabernacle will I sacrifice with shouts of joy; I will sing and make music to the Lord.” (Psalm 27:4-6)
