How sweet the time we take to just enjoy the presense of the Lord of Hosts, to bask in His infinite love and mercy, to read the Word and ponder the greatest story ever told. What mercy He bestows upon man, who has failed God at every turn, yet He loved us enough to give the very best He had for us. Amazing Grace!!!
"Delight yourself in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart." Ps 37:4
"The joy of the Lord is my strength." Nehemiah 8:10
"If we say we have no sin, we decieve ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." 1 John 1:8,9.
In our Christian life too, practice makes perfect-when you fall and fail, confess it to the Lord and try again-He remembers we are dust.
Our God is an awesome God!!
Someone once asked, why do we run from the only One who can help us? Waiting on the Lord is not giving up, it is only putting it in God's hands. Lord, help us to realize we can't fix everything, we need Jesus every minute of every day. If we have a heart tuned to hear the words of the Lord, and desire to cleave to Him, we will face the rage of Hell itself-but that battle is the Lord's. He will fight it for us.
