Do I? Do We?

Jun6

I usually like to share scripture of praise on Fridays. This week I was led to Psalm 145. I have to tell you, I felt very convicted.

Every day I will bless You, And I will praise Your name forever and ever.
Psalms 145:2 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.145.2.NASB1995

Everyday? Do I?

One generation shall praise Your works to another, And shall declare Your mighty acts.
Psalms 145:4 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.145.4.NASB1995

Do we?

On the glorious splendor of Your majesty And on Your wonderful works, I will meditate.
Psalms 145:5 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.145.5.NASB1995

Do we? Is this daily or just on Sunday?

Men shall speak of the power of Your awesome acts, And I will tell of Your greatness.
Psalms 145:6 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.145.6.NASB1995

Do we? Ever? Occasionally? Everyday?

They shall eagerly utter the memory of Your abundant goodness And will shout joyfully of Your righteousness.
Psalms 145:7 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.145.7.NASB1995

Do we? Or is this another, just on Sunday thing?

All Your works shall give thanks to You, O Lord, And Your godly ones shall bless You.
Psalms 145:10 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.145.10.NASB1995

How often in a day do we give thanks to our Lord? Do we bless Him?

They shall speak of the glory of Your kingdom And talk of Your power; To make known to the sons of men Your mighty acts And the glory of the majesty of Your kingdom.
Psalms 145:11-12 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.145.11-12.NASB1995

This one hits hard. Do we speak of our Lord to others? If only . . .

My mouth will speak the praise of the Lord, And all flesh will bless His holy name forever and ever.
Psalms 145:21 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.145.21.NASB1995

Our God is faithful despite our ways. Let us call upon His mercy and tell of His greatness, power and truth. May He move through us for His glory.

🌹The Lord is righteous in all His ways And kind in all His deeds. The Lord is near to all who call upon Him, To all who call upon Him in truth.
Psalms 145:17-18 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.145.17-18.NASB1995

Praise God for His Word that convicts and changes our perspective. Have a blessed weekend.

Testimony* of God’s Abounding Love

May6

Do you ever recognize the abounding love of God in the little things?

Those little things are so huge to me that I stand in awe that God loves and cares that much for me.

This morning I was running late to work. What can take me anywhere from 15-20 minutes to drive – and usually it’s closer to the 20 – took 13 minutes.

Let me set up the reason why I know God showed His love to me today. I have two stop signs, one on a busy thoroughfare and ten stop lights, one I call the longest light in history if red, on my journey to work.

The first stop light on the busy thoroughfare had no cross traffic. Out of the ten stoplights I had to stop at three of them and the real blessing is “the longest light in history” was green. Woohoo.

I pulled into the parking lot with two minutes to spare. (And no, there was no speeding or illegal driving in the making of this testimony)

God has our days perfectly planned out and when we love Him with all our heart we see reasons to thank Him and praise Him!!!

🙌 Look for ways that God blesses you today. Thank Him and praise Him!!

🌹The Lord is compassionate and gracious, Slow to anger and abounding in lovingkindness.

Walking in The Light of Life

May2

In God, whose word I praise,
In the Lord, whose word I praise,
In God I have put my trust (trust without fear),
I shall not be afraid.
What can man do to me?

For You have delivered my soul from death,
Indeed my feet from stumbling,
So that I may walk before God
In the light of the living (life).
Psalms 56:10-11, 13 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.56.10-13.NASB1995

🌹Return to your rest, O my soul, For the Lord has dealt bountifully with you. For You have rescued my soul from death, My eyes from tears, My feet from stumbling. I shall walk before the Lord In the land of the living.
