Come, let us sing for joy to the Lord ; let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation.
Psalm 95:1 NIV
A friend wrote this meditation on Ps95 yesterday
#writeyourownpsalm

I sing joyfully to the Lord
Who is my rock
My place to stand
I sing joyfully to the lord
Who keeps me safe
Within his embrace

There is no God like my God
Who created all things on earth
And loves all things equally
Who created the highest mountains and the deepest depths of the oceans
And knows every part of me

What a wonderful and powerful name!
And yet, has so much grace and love!

I sing joyfully to the Lord
And listen for His voice
I may turn my back
But my God is always there
Calling me home
Reminding me I can rely on Him

I sing joyfully to the Lord
For being in His house brings me joy
Being with His people brings me joy
Knowing I am His
Overwhelms me
Frightens me
But overall
Brings me joy and comfort

Joseph replied..."Dont you see, you planned evil against me but God used those same plans for my good, as you see all around you right now - life for many people..." Genesis 50:19-20 MSG The view from the drone. The different perspective. "God has been at work in my life despite, in fact within the hatred that you had towards me. Even though I couldn't always see it, I kept trusting Him, even when He was silent, when all hope seemed lost... God was at work... Can you see that now?" #faith #faithinthedark
Genesis 15.8-18.ESV But he said O Lord God , how am I to know that I shall possess it? ...When the sun had gone down and it was dark, behold, a smoking fire pot and a flaming torch passed between these pieces. On that day the Lord made a covenant with Abram... March 15 was the last day we looked at Abram's story...he was questioning God and this is God's response...sacrifices and smoke and fire and a covenant...a promise... Isn't that what we crave for sometimes? God, if only you'd just show me smoke & fire, a burning bush a sign, miracle, healing...then all my questions would disappear...all my doubts would be gone... 2moro we'll see Abram's response but I think God values our faith in spite of our questions and doubts. That we choose Him anyway #faith
Psalm 42.1-11.nlt As the deer longs for streams of water, so I long for you, O God... I thirst for God, the living God. When can I go and stand before him? O God my rock l cry, Why have you forgotten me? Why must I wander around in grief, oppressed by my enemies? Their taunts break my bones. They scoff, Where is this God of yours? Why am I discouraged? Why is my heart so sad? I will put my hope in God! I will praise him again - my Savior and my God! That song "as the deer pants for the water..." seems almost nice, but it's not...it's part of a cry of anguish, of hurt, of despair...of God not giving an answer...yet...through all that...again and again he says I'll put my hope in God! #choose #hope #hopeunshaken
