LOYAL...to me???

Ps. 30

9Once I have turned to dust, how can I praise you or tell how loyal you are?
-I've never thought about telling of the loyalty of God. What is He loyal to? Himself? His laws? Yes, but also, He is loyal to me. Think about that for just a second and remember how the Lord has been loyal to you. Remember how He has seen you through so many things. Remember the times when God moved in your life and reflect on them at least once a month. Share your testimonies with those around you. There is power in sharing them. It has a way of lifting your Spirit-and other too. People can tell me all they want that God does not care, or God is not real..but I know otherwise because I have had personal experience with Him- an encounter that so changed my life. A pivitol moment in time where one way to the left or right would determine my future. And in that moment, He met me. He showed up. He didn't forget me becuase He is loyal to me and our relationship.

I will take a minute to reflect on the times God has demonstrated His loyalty in my life and how to express that through Scripture...

7You, LORD, were my friend, and you made me strong as a mighty mountain.

5Your anger lasts a little while, but your kindness lasts for a lifetime.

2I prayed to you, LORD God, and you healed me, 3saving me from death and the grave.

9Come save us and bless us. Be our shepherd and always carry us in your arms. Ps. 28

I can think of so many times that God has been a friend to me. He has been so kind to me- despite my attitude toward Him. He has healed me and saved me. He has blessed me and is now the Shepherd of my life- carrying my in His arms. May I continue to stay there and not become prideful or independent. It's easier for me to work for love- that way I feel like I've earned it. It is harder to receive a love that you don't have to work for. It is much easier to be a slave than a lover. Help me to receive Your love and the goodness of our friendship.

Lord, help us to never forget your kindness. LORD make us strong and give us peace.

4I ask only one thing, LORD: Let me live in your house every day of my life to see how wonderful you are.. Ps. 27
