Sunday Psalms;

Declare me innocent, 
O Lord, 
for I have acted with integrity; 
I have trusted in the Lord without wavering.
Put me on trial, 
Lord, 
and cross-examine me. Test my motives and my heart. 
For I am always aware of your unfailing love...
Psalms 26:1-3 NLT

Not sure I'm as brave as David is to ask God to put me on trial, to have Him examine, challenge, pick apart my motivation in Court!
To test my heart for integrity!
And as David does this, goes boldly before our God, there is the redemptive strand that David knows that he is held by Unfailing Love.
Some days it's easy to believe that and other days not so easy, but this song invites us to live like it is, no matter what is in front of us today.
Live boldly because we are held by Unfailing Love.
What does that invite us to put down today?

Live boldly because we are held by Unfailing Love.
What does that invite us to step towards today?

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
