It is good to praise the Lord and make music to your name, O Most High, proclaiming your love in the morning...
Psalm 92:1-2 NIV
Great strategy of David's that we should try...
Proclaim God's love in the morning... start the day with a reminder of God's love for You. The One who has a You shaped space in His heart...the One who loves...
Normally when we proclaim love it's our love for someone else, to tell or remind someone of our love for them, but here we are called to proclaim God's love for us...to remind ourselves...that we're dearly loved.
Would it change our day if we started with that proclamation?
Would that set us up to make some music?

...four men arrived carrying a paralyzed man on a mat. They couldn't bring him to Jesus because of the crowd, so they dug a hole through the roof above his head. Then they lowered the man on his mat, right down in front of Jesus... Mark 2:3-4 NLT Great account of inventiveness and determination to get their friend to see Jesus. Love this. Do you wonder about the back story? Are these the same 4 people who bring this man food? Take him to the toilet every day. Clean him up. Does he live with one of them? Are they family? Are there whole families or groups of people in the background who have supported and cared for this man? A group of children who grew up seeing their parents love in action? Probably. Healing Help Hope These things are found in community. These 4 guys are the heroes here. The upfront people. One day it will be interesting to see who the background heroes are. #loveinaction #community #inthistogether #walkingeachotherhome #gospelofmark
