Weekly Scriptural Reflection for 18 November 2014

And when you turn to the right or when you turn to the left,

your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying,

“This is the way; walk in it.”

Isaiah 30, Verse 21

What peace this verse brings to my heart. It reminds me that no matter where I go, what direction I go in, God is always with me. If I choose to listen to him, he will always direct me on the path that I need to travel.

He always has my best interests at heart and, even though sometimes things may not unfold the way that I think they should, I can fully trust in God to be leading me where I need to go. He is my loving Father, my Counsellor, my Guide.

Amen!

Blessings,

Weekly Scriptural Reflection for 16 September 2014

Praise the Lord!

Praise the name of the Lord; give praise, O servants of the Lord,

you that stand in the house of the Lord, in the courts of the house of our God.

Praise the Lord, for the Lord is good; sing to his name, for he is gracious.

Psalms 135, Verses 1-36

 
I think that today in most main stream Christian churches we have gotten away from “praising” the Lord. Most of us attend church, go to “the house of the Lord”, just once a week – maybe twice a week. We attend services, say our prayers, and sing a few songs. But do we really “praise” God? Do we lift our voices joyfully, exultantly, enthusiastically? These verses exhort us to praise the Lord when we are in his house, to “sing to his name”. They remind us that we should do this because the Lord is good and gracious.

If I really consider the might of the Lord, if I truly consider who he is and what he has done for humankind, for me, I should be singing His praises from the moment I awake to the moment I fall back asleep, every day. Hallelujah!! God is good!

Blessings,

Margo
