Sunday Psalms;

The earth is the Lord's, and everything in it. 
The world and all its people belong to him. For he laid the earth's foundation on the seas and built it on the ocean depths.

Who may climb the mountain of the Lord? Who may stand in his holy place?

Only those whose hands and hearts are pure, who do not worship idols and never tell lies. 

They will receive the Lord's blessing and have a right relationship with God their savior. 

Such people may seek you and worship in your presence, O God of Jacob. 

Interlude

Psalms 24:1-6 NLT
After the beauty and invitations of Psalms 23 we get this "excluding" view that David paints - we're back to never-good-enough for God.
Or does it?
Because if God's glory, His holiness was all there is to the story then maybe that narrative holds.
But it's not.
It's true, but it's also not the whole story.
Sunday in particular we get together if we can to worship our Risen Saviour who made the way, who is the Way.
Yesterday we saw in Romans how the law can't be the way, but God stepped towards us and Jesus became the Way.
In this song we see again God's holiness and Glory and know we can't bridge the gap to Him.
He stepped towards us.
From Glory.
In Holiness.
Became one of us, so we can be one with Him...

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
