Good morning, it would appear to be cloudy and wet out there today. We had a wonderful Bible study last night as we read and learned about the Psalms or songs of praise to God. Jesus and Paul often quoted the Psalms in their words of the New Testament; we should look back to the Psalms often. The celebration of Jesus’ resurrection draws closer; lift your hands and hearts in praise to our Lord! Have you ever wondered how the writers came up with the Psalms, or where the composers of today come up with such wonderful hymns and songs of praise? I have, and I am sure that it is from God himself that these words and combinations of notes come. When a composer has a close relationship with our Lord, the words of love and praise flow out as from a fountain.
I am starting a bit slowly today as I have a dental checkup to start the morning. This is all to the benefit of the cat, he is absorbing that spare time in getting some attention from me. The Lord may have provided these simple creatures to remind us of how we should come to him. As children are, so we come to Him, our Lord and our Savior. Don’t be afraid to lean close to the Lord, asking the questions dear to your heart and getting wonderful answers. Have you ever felt afraid to ask God something? Perhaps, as I have been, you are more afraid of the answer that you might receive. We need not fear; the answers we receive are always what are best for us. God cares about us and for us; we should not come to him expecting the lash of the whip, but the love of our Father in Heaven.
God’s grace and peace be with you,
Bucky
