Michelle, my morning's lectionary Scripture reading included the item I had been looking for (Strength to Strength), and it's in Psalm 84.

This Psalm presents a fine example of how seeking the higher good can bring us to our goals.

I like the Amplified Bible for personal reading because ...It attempts to take both word meaning and context into account in order to accurately translate the original text from one language into another. The Amplified Bible does this through the use of explanatory alternate readings and amplifications to assist the reader in understanding what Scripture really says. Multiple English word equivalents to each key Hebrew and Greek word clarify and amplify meanings that may otherwise have been concealed by the traditional translation method.
