Day 352 Bible Reading: Habakkuk 1-3, Revelation 9, Psalm 137 and Proverbs 30:7-9 
The Israelites only wept when they remembered Jerusalem even they were in exile in Babylon, Zion: Jerusalem, where God was worshipped, where they could experience the presence and blessing of God. But they did not treasure the presence of God and not obey God. They needed God occasionally in their way, And what about you and me? We need God’s presence all the time or occasionally.
"By the waters of Babylon, there we sat down and wept, when we remembered Zion." – Psalm 137:1 (English Standard Version)
"Lord, in your presence, is life and joy and abundance. In our all-time, lousy time, challenges, and difficulties, we want your presence all the time. We want to be with you and in your presence. We need you, Lord. We belong to you, and we belong to the kingdom of God. We are in your kingdom. In Jesus' name, Amen."
