Sunday Pslams;

It is good to give thanks to the Lord, 
to sing praise to your name, 
Most High,
to declare your faithful love in the morning 
and your faithfulness at night, 
with a ten-stringed harp and the music of a lyre. 

Pslams 92:1-3CSB

This isn"a song to be sung on the Sabbath day"
A song to be sung when we choose to honour God by resting. 
By giving our mind, body and spirit rest.
Rest.
Some might have to work today, for some it seems difficult to get a moments rest.
Perhaps this song can help us find that rest:
It starts with an attitude, a choosing to be thankful.
Gratitude.
A choosing to praise, to sing, to use music.
And to declare some things at the beginning of the day and at the end of the day.
To declare God's faithful love. 
At the start of the day.
And at the end of the day. 
To be grateful.
And to sing, to find a way to express with our body that gratitude, to have a whole integrated expression. When we sing it's engaging our mind, our body, and our spirit.
And, there is a musician there. I don't think this morning and evening declaration and singing was meant to be done alone but in community.
Together.
Whether that's possible today or not, may you start & end the day declaring with all your person, God's faithful love with a heart of gratitude, and find rest.

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
