David’s Daily Devotion for March 3

March 3, 2022 - This coming Sunday morning our church will sing a new song, one that we've never sung together before. It's called "House of the Lord" and it's filled with truth and joy. The Contemporary Christian songwriter, Phil Wickham, composed the song in 2020 - during the height of the pandemic - during a time when we weren't allowed to meet in the house of the Lord. And joy was in short supply, as well.

And we're planning a series of devotions during the week prior, that will focus on our Creator and on His creation. Hope you can join us for those thoughts.

Alexander Pope was an English poet in the early 1700's. After Shakespeare, he may be the most quoted writer in history. Here are just a few of his memorable thoughts -

To err is human, to forgive, divine.
Fools rush in, where angels fear to trod.
Blessed is he who expects nothing, for he shall never be disappointed.
A little learning is a dangerous thing.

And my personal favorite - "Hope springs eternal".
