Psalm 122 (A slight detour from Isaiah)

This morning I decided to read from the book of Psalms. As I was looking for a particular chapter to read, I came across Psalm122. Psalm 123 was on the same page and so I decided to read that chapter instead. But I felt a little nudging, and inclination of sorts to go back and at least read Psalm 122 as well. So I did. And God spoke to me. He told me to pray for the peace of Jerusalem. He even told me what to pray: "May those who love you be secure. May there be peace within your walls and security within your citadels" (Psalm 122: 6-7). With all the unrest in the Middle East, may this be your prayer this morning as well.
