Today = Hebrews 1 + Genesis 45:1- 46:27 + Psalm 36
Ok, so I'm trying to quickly write a post before my computer battery dies; somehow I forgot my cord in studio!
So quickly I will comment on Psalm 36 because I love it and it is definitely the source for one of my favorite Hope songs. I love that David just praises God without ceasing. His words obviously do not do God justice, but it doesn't stop him from trying.
"Your love, O lord, reaches to the heavens, your faithfulness to the skies. Your righteousness is like the mighty mountains, your justice like the great deep. O Lord you preserve both man and beast. How priceless is your unfailing love! Both high and low among en find refuge in the shadow of your wings. They feast on the abundance of your house; you give them drink from your river of delights. For with you is the fountain of life; in your light we see light." (Psalm 36:5-9)
I am realizing lately that God's love is infinitely more than I will ever grasp. Also his justice. All life that is true life comes through him. True love comes from him, true life comes from him. All else is just an imperfect image. But when I am drawn close to God and experience some of that love and that life, it truly is amazing. Lately I have been so pleased and relieved to have my joy back; I don't know when I lost it, but in the process of drawing near to Him I feel so much more filled.
