I love my Fridays! They begin way too early, but it’s so worth it! My church has a women’s early morning prayer each week, and it’s the highlight of my week. I had the most delightful time driving to school this morning. This beautiful song started just as I drove over a hill and the beauty of the music and landscape took my breath away. All I could see were the mountains standing so beautifully on the horizon cloaked in wisps of mist. The colors of mountain, mist, and sky contrasted so beautifully as the music proclaimed, “Lord I’ve heard of Your fame, I stand in awe of Your deeds.” Oh! Awe filled my heart, overflowing awe! Our God is unknowably glorious, stunningly beautiful! I’ve He has filled this earth with such beauty, what is He Himself like? Oh! And His wonderful deeds! He is faithful, so just and good in all of His dealings with men. He is a warrior who will stand up and fight for His people. He is moved by my voice, when I cry out for justice and help. When my enemies are too strong.
“The pangs of death surrounded me, and the floods of ungodliness made me afraid. The sorrows of Sheol surrounded me; the snares of death confronted me. In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried out to my God; He heard my voice from His temple, and my cry came before Him, even to His ears… “
Psalm 18
What a glorious God! It is an honor to pour out my life at His feet. It is altogether right and good that I should give everything in pursuit of Him. Lord, I am Yours. Make me Yours. Use my weak words to make Your glories known. Blessed are You oh Lord!
