\\ *I’M SO EXCITED                 *Psalms 122:1 \\ \\ In the 80’s there was a song by the Pointer Sisters that said: \\ \\
“I’m so excited and I just can’t hide it; I’m about to lose control; and I think I like it.”
\\ \\ We have come here today to Celebrate the presence of our God in our lives.
We have a reason to be excited today.
We don’t need to hide it, and if we get out of control, I think not only will we like it but I feel like it would please God.
\\ \\ *In church one Sunday a small child was turning around smiling at everyone.
He wasn’t gurgling, spitting, humming, tearing the hymnbooks apart, or rummaging through his mother’s purse.
He was just smiling.
Suddenly his mother jerked him around, and in a stage whisper that everyone could hear, and said, "Stop that grinning.
You’re in church."
With that she gave him a slap on his thigh, and as the tears rolled down his cheeks she added, "That’s better," and returned to her prayers.*

Why? \\ - Because they are fresh \\ - They are untarnished \\ \\

\\ He didn’t cover up but He removed the imperfections and replaced every part of me and you.
