Welcome To Sunday At Amy's Place

If God sees the sparrow’s fall,
Paints the lilies short and tall,
Gives the skies their azure hue,
Will He not then care for you?

From Duty To Delight
September 16, 2012

Because of my wife’s busy schedule, sometimes she can commit only a limited amount of time every week to each of our grandchildren. When possible, however, she will rearrange her schedule to spend more time with them—not out of duty, but because she loves them. When I see her with them, I understand what the word delight means.

In Psalm 119, David tells of his “delight” in God’s Word. He uses the word delight eight times (vv.16,24, 35,47,70,77,92,174). He says: “I will delight myself in Your statutes; I will not forget Your Word. . . . I will delight myself in Your commandments, which I love” (vv.16,47). The psalmist’s words, “I will delight,” indicate that it is a deliberate act of his will. However, it is not a burden for him to delight in God’s Word because he loves it. David’s close relationship with God created in him a desire to know what his Beloved had to say.

In the same way, for us to move from duty to delight in God’s Word, we need to strengthen our relationship with Him. When we remember how much He loves and cherishes us, we will respond with love and we will delight to spend time with Him. “Oh, how I love Your law! It is my meditation all the day” (v.97).

Then let me love my Bible more
And take a fresh delight
By day to read these wonders o’er
And meditate by night. —Watts

Whether morning, noon, or night, make God’s Word your delight.

Read: Psalm 119:41-48

I will delight myself in Your commandments, which I love. —Psalm 119:47

Bible in a Year:
Ezekiel 40-42

As High as the Heaven is Above the Earth,
So Great is His Mercy Toward them that Fear Him.
As Far as the East is from the West:
So Far hath He Removed our Sins from us.
As a Father hath Compassion on His Children,
So hath the Lord Compassion on them that Fear Him.

(Ps.103:11-13)

A Blessed Lord's Day to Amy's Place

[TheConservativeParty]

Beautiful little hummingbird Meg! Hard to find one sitting long enough to even snap such a picture.

Heard this on Christian radio last night. Wanted to share it at Amy’s Place.

When life is serving up trouble, we should remember that “Nothing is bigger than God.” In other words, no matter what vexes you, look to God and there He is and nothing is more important than our faith in God.

The radio host then added “The joy of The Lord is my strength.” scripture we all know.

“Nothing is bigger than God.”
“The joy of The Lord is my strength.”

Blessing to all at Amy’s Place
