How Exquisite Your Love, O God! Psalm 36

How Exquisite Your Love, O God! Psalm 36

Comments 1 comment

Psalm 36 (The Message, emphasis mine)  1-4 The God-rebel tunes in to sedition— all ears, eager to sin.    He has no regard for God,       he stands insolent before him.    He has smooth-talked himself       into believing    That his evil       will never be noticed.    Words gutter from his mouth,       dishwater dirty.    Can’t remember when he       did anything decent.    Every time he goes to bed,       he fathers another evil plot.    When he’s loose on the streets,       nobody’s safe.    He plays with fire       and doesn’t…

Light, Space, Zest – That’s GOD! Psalm 27

Light, Space, Zest – That’s GOD! Psalm 27

Psalm 27 (The Message)  1 Light, space, zest— that’s God!    So, with him on my side I’m fearless,       afraid of no one and nothing.  2 When vandal hordes ride down       ready to eat me alive,    Those bullies and toughs       fall flat on their faces.  3 When besieged,       I’m calm as a baby.    When all hell breaks loose,       I’m collected and cool.  4 I’m asking God for one thing,       only one thing:    To live with him in his house       my whole life…

God’s Glory Is on Tour in the Skies -Psalm 19

God’s Glory Is on Tour in the Skies -Psalm 19

Comments 0 Comment

Psalm 19 (The Message, emphasis mine) 1-2 God’s glory is on tour in the skies, God-craft on exhibit across the horizon. Madame Day holds classes every morning, Professor Night lectures each evening. 3-4 Their words aren’t heard, their voices aren’t recorded, But their silence fills the earth: unspoken truth is spoken everywhere. 4-5 God makes a huge dome for the sun—a superdome! The morning sun’s a new husband leaping from his honeymoon bed, The daybreaking sun an athlete racing to…

In Need of little TLC?

Comments 4 comments

Once in awhile we all need little TLC. Fortunately, God has specialized in giving us tender loving care. So, we are in good hands. God has promised to take care of us until the end of the world:Jesus, undeterred, went right ahead and gave his charge: “God authorized and commanded me to commission you: Go out and train everyone you meet, far and near, in this way of life, marking them by baptism in the threefold name: Father, Son, and…

Psalm 143 (the Message, emphasis mine) 1-2 Listen to this prayer of mine, God; pay attention to what I’m asking. Answer me—you’re famous for your answers! Do what’s right for me. But don’t, please don’t, haul me into court; not a person alive would be acquitted there. 3-6 The enemy hunted me down; he kicked me and stomped me within an inch of my life. He put me in a black hole, buried me like a corpse in that dungeon….

Me – A Temple of The Holy Spirit?

Me – A Temple of The Holy Spirit?

Comments 0 Comment

Do you have some difficult faith topics that you push away from your mind as much as you can? I bet you do. I think we all do. One of my challenging faith concepts has long time been ‘our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit’. Not because I would not agree with the statement. But because it is humbling to think that my body is a temple of the Holy Spirit. THE HOLY SPIRIT!!! Or didn’t you realize that your body is a…

 Psalm 139 (The Message)1-6 God, investigate my life; get all the facts firsthand.    I’m an open book to you;       even from a distance, you know what I’m thinking.    You know when I leave and when I get back;       I’m never out of your sight.    You know everything I’m going to say       before I start the first sentence.    I look behind me and you’re there,       then up ahead and you’re there, too—       your reassuring presence, coming and going.    This is too much,…

1-2 Don’t bother your head with braggarts or wish you could succeed like the wicked. In no time they’ll shrivel like grass clippings and wilt like cut flowers in the sun. 3-4 Get insurance with God and do a good deed, settle down and stick to your last. Keep company with God, get in on the best. 5-6 Open up before God, keep nothing back; he’ll do whatever needs to be done: He’ll validate your life in the clear light…
