“One thing have I desired of the Lord, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to enquire in His temple.” -Psalm 27:4

Lord, I will obey You simply because You are worthy of it and it is my duty. But don’t let my service to You remain at that level. Show me Your beauty – attract my heart, capture my imagination, so that I find joyful pleasure in serving You. Amen. -Tim Keller via Twitter
