Day 253: Dude, He's POWERFUL!

Our blogs will be different by the day... some will be fun details, questions, issues, surprises... and others will be verses, lessons, deep thoughts of God in our hearts. This journey is FAR BEYOND the physical, the natural... the journey goes much deeper than the surface. These 257 days have already become and will continue to be a crazy time of spiritual growth. Closer to Jesus, deeper in Him, being drawn tighter to His heart.

I heard an awesome quote today (on a side note) that really shook me up:
"I am loved BY God, and I am lovely TO God, therefore I desire to be a lover OF God!"
Chew on that.

I read Psalm 19 this morning after listening to a message on the life of David by Mike Bickle, and wanted to post this Psalm. It totally got me shouting, LITERALLY, in my chair. I was filled with awe, joy, overwhelming adoration for the power of Jesus. Read this:

Psalm 19:4-9, 14

God has made a home in the heavens for the sun.
It BURSTS forth like a radiant bridegroom after his wedding.
It rejoices like a great athlete EAGER to run the race!
The sun rises at one end of the heavens, and
follows its course to the other end.
Nothing can hide from its heat!

The instructions of the Lord are PERFECT,
REVIVING the soul!
The decrees of the Lord are trustworthy,
making wise the simple.
The commandments of the Lord are RIGHT,
bringing JOY to the heart!!!
The commands of the Lord are clear,
giving insight for living.
Reverence for the Lord is pure, lasting forever.
The laws of the Lord are true, each one IS fair.

May the words of my mouth and the
meditations of my heart be pleasing to You,
O Lord, my Rock and Redeemer!


I don't know about you, but this chapter makes me want to dive, run, emerge myself into His teachings and His laws. He has our best interest in mind. He's not mean, angry, selfish... He's a Father, who disciplines His children. He's set laws to protect us, guide us, and BLESS US! He's jealous for our heart and screaming out for our attention. Yep, He sure is. :-)


QUESTION OF THE DAY:
What is ONE (1) scripture verse that has shaped who you are today? Why?


Love you all,

    Proverbs 16:3. My mom had a picture of ballet shoes with this scripture on it when I was little. I memorized it then and it has been my favorite verse since I was about 4! I try to live by it.

    "Commit to the Lord whatever you do and your plans will succeed."

    Psalm 119 has been an important scripture in raising my children to be followers of Jesus. It is a great reminder of hiding God's word in their hearts. :)

    And psalm 121

    Ok, I have so many more, but I will stick with those for now! :)
