He wins. All the time.
Tonight was a good night to read my Bible. Well, any night is a good night to read my Bible. I haven’t been posting much, but I have been keeping up with my 365project. (See last post.) I need to… not be so lazy with sharing. If I can’t share what I learned in a simple blog, what makes me think I can share to people, who are able to respond back and ask questions? Geebers Loris, keep up.
I don’t know why I keep making my way back to Psalms. I lovelovelove Psalms. Today I was flipping around, trying to get pulled towards a verse that I could use for today’s daily Bible verse. I came across Psalm 22.
It is amazing to read about David’s full trust in God. I admit that many times, I attempt to fix my problems using my own judgment— and even if I weigh the circumstances with a Biblical mind, I don’t practice putting my trust IN Him. It’s sort of a… “God would want me to do this” instead of a “God, what do you want me to do?”. Many times, I’m clouded by my own judgment; the flesh is TRICKY. Ugh! Anyways, I’ve really been put to the test these last couple of days; even more so because people are aware that I am a Christian. They are aware that I will turn to God, and that my reasoning will be based on His. Kind of reminds me of David in a sense:
All who see me mock me; they hurl insults, shaking their heads: “He trusts in the Lord; let the Lord rescue him. Let him deliver him, since he delights in him.” (vs. 7-8)
Through all this, David has his heart and mind set on God. How well do we battle against persecution? How prepared are we to stand up for Him?
Do not be far from me, for trouble is near and there is no one to help. (v. 11)
Lean on Him. Pray continually. Keep that followship with Him solid.
Kbye.
