When was the last time you were so full of joy you could not hold it in? Not just content, not just okay, but genuinely, deeply, overflowing-from-the-inside happy? That is exactly the kind of worship Psalm 100 is describing. And the remarkable thing is, the psalmist does not connect that joy to good circumstances. He…
