PRAYING IN THE MORNING

The psalmist here demonstrates a person that starts his day by turning his focus onto God. Prayer is an act of faith demonstrating our dependence upon the Lord. It is also an act of worship where we can praise God and thank Him for all that he does. What a great way to start the day!

A GREAT CONTRADICTION

This portion of the Psalm by King David contrasts the wrath of proud men to the longsuffering of an all knowing God. It is a great contradiction for man to benefit from the longsuffering of God and not show it one to another. It is especially egregious for believers who know the longsuffering of God to not offer the same to other believers. Regardless of this contradiction we must remember the greatest contradiction in human history is that Jesus the savior of the world was crucified by man, otherwise, we are likely to faint in our minds (Heb. 12:3).

A TALE OF TWO CREATURES

Two things are true. First, there is no more miserable a creature than a man carrying the guilt of sin. Second, there is also no more happy of a creature than a man that knows his sin has been forgiven.

GOD IS GOOD

When our circumstances do not look good we must purpose in our heart to see God’s goodness at work.

BE STILL & LISTEN

Every day we are greeted by a cacophony of sound that has a tendency to drown out the voice of God
