Daily Verse
He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High
will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
Psalm 91:1
Daily Thought
There is always someone bigger.
There is always someone better.
There is always someone smarter.
There is always someone stronger.
The high school superstar discovers college is full of high school superstars.
Improvement. Achievement. Growth.
It is true in everything, except one thing.
Our God.
No god bigger.
No god better.
No god smarter.
No god stronger.
No other god.
Good can become better, and better can become best. Even best can improve, achieve, grow.
But it all comes to rest at Ultimate. Most High. One and Only.
There is one place, and only one place, where you do not strive for more because you cannot strive for more.
In the shadow of the Almighty.
To God's Glory,
Dave
Daily Prayer
Oh Lord our God, You are One, the One and Only God. You sent Your Son, Your One and Only Son, to seek and to save the lost. Me. All of us. Thank You for Your grace and love. Your love for sinners sets You apart from anything else. All love is measured by You, who, while we were still sinners, died on the cross for our salvation.
God, I pray that my love would grow to be as complete and sacrificial as Yours is. God, may I love without any strings attached. May I realize that I don't need anything else, because I can rest complete in You. Then my love will be pure, free of selfish motive.
Amen
