Learning still.
“Naked I came from my mother’s womb,
and naked I will depart.[a]
The LORD gave and the LORD has taken away;
may the name of the LORD be praised.” Job 1:21
Blessed be the name of the Lord,
when i am found with headaches and viruses that willn't quit.
Blessed be His name when i am running a half marathon,
Blessed be His name when i am looking at support shortages with no (worldly) hope of reaching.
Blessed be His name when the generosity of others surprises us.
Blessed be His name remembering my Tabitha dying in my arms.
Blessed be the name of the Lord when i am tired and discouraged.
Blessed be His name as i prepare to return home to be confronted again by suffering and confusion.
Blessed be His name as i walk yet another day with the creator of the universe.
1 Praise the LORD.
Praise the LORD, you his servants;
praise the name of the LORD.
2 Let the name of the LORD be praised,
both now and forevermore.
3 From the rising of the sun to the place where it sets,
the name of the LORD is to be praised.
4 The LORD is exalted over all the nations,
his glory above the heavens.
5 Who is like the LORD our God,
the One who sits enthroned on high,
6 who stoops down to look
on the heavens and the earth? Psalm 113
Funny what a change of perspective can do. Turn your eyes on the author and perfecter of your faith. See Him for who he is and worship Him.
Blessed be His name. This is our God. This is our help and assurance.
Blessed be His name.
