Declaration Day: Greatness

Tues March 20

"Declare the greatness of our God!
...His work is perfect;
Deut 32:3 (Holman Christian Standard Bible)

All God's creation is affirmative, declaring its greatness, joy and glory!

Joyful Day: The Salvation

Thurs Feb 9


"My soul shall be joyful in the Lord: it shall rejoice in his salvation. " Ps 35:9
The Allness of God, the all present good, the everything happy, is contained in one word: JOY!

It is the jumping up and down feeling for knowing the Truth and being so loved and privileged. How does it get any better than that?

Day Fifteen: The path

Sat Jan 14


"Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy" Ps 16:11

What is my purpose? What is my life about?
What is my path?
Where do you want me to be?
These and more questions arise trying to understand the wonder of Life.
But a smile, a breath, a sweet moment of prayer, all say "I AM your Life and nothing else"...

Day Seven: Child-likeness


Fri Jan 6
"Willingness to become as a little child and to leave the old for the new, renders thought receptive of the advanced idea."
SH 323:32-5

It takes courage to forget the "me and my story" and "real-eyes" life.
Kids say:" but it's all about having fun!
I am grateful for child-likeness.

Day Three: Celebration



Mon Jan 2nd 
"I will call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised:
He brought me forth also into a large place; he delivered me, because he delighted in me.
The Lord rewarded me according to my righteousness; according to the cleanness of my hands hath he recompensed me."
Psalms
There is a sense of joy in the air, a sense of celebration for something good to come.
The hope for something better.
I am grateful for hope. I am grateful for celebration!

Day Seven: Praise


Wednesday, Nov 23
Today is the day of rest and mild chores. I am determined to focus on the spirit of the coming Holiday.
"O come, let us sing unto the Lord:
Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms.
Sing joyful songs to the Lord! ...Come to worship him with thankful hearts and songs of praise."     

I am grateful for the gift of Praise!
