One of the great characteristics of reading the Scripture is to encounter the loftiness of God. The Psalms help us remember God transcends our thoughts and lives. Here is one example...
Great is the LORD, and most worthy of praise, in the city of our God, his holy mountain. It is beautiful in its loftiness, the joy of the whole earth. Like the utmost heights of Zaphon is Mount Zion, the city of the Great King.
In my life this is one of my greatest desires is to encounter each day the loftiness of God. Zion is the city of God and is the ideal of every earthly aspiration. In the the ordinary, amid the flaws, and encountering imperfection at every corner...God's loftiness is something to aspire to. As the hymn says..."We are marching to Zion the beautiful city of God!"
Amen!
