Psalm 116
1 I love the LORD, because he has heard my voice and my pleas for mercy.
2 Because he inclined his ear to me, therefore I will call on him as long as I live.
3 The snares of death encompassed me; the pangs of Sheol laid hold on me; I suffered distress and anguish. 4 Then I called on the name of the LORD: "O LORD, I pray, deliver my soul!"
5 Gracious is the LORD, and righteous; our God is merciful.
6 The LORD preserves the simple; when I was brought low, he saved me. 7 Return, O my soul, to your rest; for the LORD has dealt bountifully with you. 8 For you have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling;
9 I will walk before the LORD in the land of the living.
10 I believed, even when I spoke, "I am greatly afflicted"; 11 I said in my alarm, "All mankind are liars."
12 What shall I render to the LORD for all his benefits to me?
13 I will lift up the cup of salvation and call on the name of the LORD, 14 I will pay my vows to the LORD in the presence of all his people.
15 Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of his saints.
16 O LORD, I am your servant; I am your servant, the son of your maidservant. You have loosed my bonds.
17 I will offer to you the sacrifice of thanksgiving and call on the name of the LORD.
18 I will pay my vows to the LORD in the presence of all his people, 19 in the courts of the house of the LORD, in your midst, O Jerusalem.
Praise the LORD!
Harvey was supposed to rain another week. The storm passed by. The winds were supposed to cause major tree damage with sustained winds. We did not see the winds. The flood was supposed to last 3 weeks. And did not.
My mother was told to us, last year, she was dying 4 times. Hospice came to call to collect her 3 times. She enjoys her life today.
When we are told God will be with us. Let us be glad. And not fear the worst. Like Peter did and cried out, "I'm a sinful man Lord God. Look from me and depart!"
Psalm 68:19
Blessed be the Lord,
who daily loadeth us with benefits,
even the God of our salvation. Selah.
His mercies renew.
Psalm 8
4 What is man that You take thought of him, And the son of man that You care for him?
Why would the God of the Universe care to know my name?
Psalm 8
3 When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, The moon and the stars, which You have ordained; 4 What is man that You take thought of him, And the son of man that You care for him? 5 Yet You have made him a little lower than God, And You crown him with glory and majesty!
The moments of our lives we do not relive often.
Your longed for birthday as a child. You were loved and honored.
Your first pet. Given for you. To broaden you.
Your first day of school.
Your first set of friends.
Your first day of High School. The Big Time.
Graduating from High School almost feels like you have dropped off a cliff - where are you going?
Suddenly finding out - you are considered to be an adult and live like an adult.
A good accomplishment.
Deciding to get married.
Your wedding day. Your honeymoon.
Finding out you are expecting a child. Going through the changes of pregnancy.
Childbirth.
Bring home a child and finding out parenting.
A job loss. Worry.
A job found. Great Day.
Your child asks you things of precious worth.
You worry for your child.
Blessings.
Finding time passes.
Wondering what happens next.
Times of trouble.
Wondering what happens next.
Being told, "God is with you."
Rejoice. Rejoice. Emmanuel shall come to Thee
Oh Israel.
Beloved of God Rejoice.
Romans 2:7
To those who by perseverance in doing good seek glory, honor, and immortality, He will give eternal life.
Abba Father,
We are invited. Invited. We will See Jesus. We will see His Glory, Honor. God Himself gives us Jesus' Immortality. Invited.
This is quite an Invitation.
Father God, will we find that the Streams of Life leading to Your Throne, the Tree of Life will look like a Sequoia.
Will we find that Angels and Archangels stood beside us as mighty, mighty Giants.
Will we be able to remain standing when we see the Heavenly Host and hear their Praises of You.
Will the best of all of Your earthly creation rush beside us as we recognize Heaven.
We will know Home. We will want to see You run to us with Your favor.
In these days:
Help us Father God to speak as You'd have us speak. Help us to listen when You'd have us Listen.
Let us do the Good Works You have put before us to do.
Rejoicing we are not God and are the sheep of Your Hand and Heart and someday of Your Hearth.
Steady us when we are frail.
Encourage us when we feel so small.
Strengthen us as You are God and we would be a Lion of God with Jesus.
Forgive us, please, when we are wrong.
Keep us on Your Path.
We Believe Your Plan is for Good. You are Good.
You are our Hope and Future.
Please hold our soul and heart and keep us in Your Heart.
O Lord God, My Rock and My Redeemer.
May the words of my mouth
and the meditations of my heart be pleasing in Thy Sight,
Jesus Lord God, Rock and Redeemer.
To You we entrust those we Love.
To You we dwell secure.
And for Your many given blessings surrounding our very lives - We give You Thanks and Praise.
Holding up this Nation under God
and the people trusting in You.
Your Beloved People, Thank You Father.
Great I am. Jesus our God.
Praise You Father, being part of the Free.
Able to Pray knowing You alone are God.
Rejoicing - Knowing - You are God.
Your Word is Good. Jesus God Amen.
♔ Lord Jesus Saves! †
