Silent and majestic
Psalm 24:1-2 NKJV The earth is the LORD's, and all its fullness, The world and those who dwell therein. [2] For He has founded it upon the seas, And established it upon the waters. It's important to remember that, in the midst of our busy days, when all seems chaotic and messy, there are places that are silent and majestic, displaying the handiwork of our great Creator God. We can be forgiven for thinking that darkness is winning, but the earth is the Lord's - He owns it. The

Glorious Titus 2:11-14 NKJV For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, [12] teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age, [13] looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, [14] who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from every lawless deed and purify for Himself His own special people, zealous for good works.

Depending on mercy
Psalm 136:1-3 NKJV Oh, give thanks to the LORD, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever. [2] Oh, give thanks to the God of gods! For His mercy endures forever. [3] Oh, give thanks to the Lord of lords! For His mercy endures forever This Psalm is one of my favourites. Yes, it's very repetitive. But us stupid ones need it rammed into our thick heads, lest we think we deserve God's favour. We don't! The very best we can do is depend on the mercy of God and pass it on. "Ble

Search, dive in!
Proverbs 25:2 AMPC It is the glory of God to conceal a thing, but the glory of kings is to search out a thing. John 5:39 AMPC You search and investigate and pore over the Scriptures diligently, because you suppose and trust that you have eternal life through them. And these [very Scriptures] testify about Me! Imagine being given a large ancient treasure chest and just leaving it untouched, never opening it or knowing what was in it. You'd call such a person a bit thick, would

What the nations should hear
Jeremiah 31:10-13 NKJV "Hear the word of the LORD, O nations, And declare it in the isles afar off, and say, 'He who scattered Israel will gather him, And keep him as a shepherd does his flock.' [11] For the LORD has redeemed Jacob, And ransomed him from the hand of one stronger than he. [12] Therefore they shall come and sing in the height of Zion, Streaming to the goodness of the LORD- For wheat and new wine and oil, For the young of the flock and the herd; Their souls shal
