Who’s At The Center?
March 25, 2014

Read: Psalm 33:6-19

The counsel of the Lord stands forever, the plans of His heart to all generations. —Psalm 33:11

Bible in a Year:
Joshua 19-21; Luke 2:25-52

Recently, I had what for me was a “Copernican moment”: I am not at the center of the universe. The world doesn’t revolve around me. It doesn’t move at my pace, in my terms, nor in accord with my preferences.

Though we might wish it to be otherwise, life is not all about us. Everything revolves around the Lord. In Psalm 33, we read that all nature revolves around Him and His control (vv.6-9). He assigned the sea its boundaries and locked the ocean in vast reservoirs. Everything in nature operates in accordance with the laws He has set.

The nations also revolve around the Lord (vv.10-12). No plan or scheme can stand up against God’s. Ultimately, it is the Lord’s plan that will stand forever. His intentions can never be shaken.

Finally, the lives of all humanity revolve around the Lord (vv.13-19). God sees the whole human race. He made our hearts, and He understands everything we do. And He has the power to intervene in our lives and deliver us from situations spinning out of control.

Our life is created to be centered on God, not self. How thankful we can be to serve such a powerful God, who has every aspect of our lives under His control.

Teach me, Lord, to live out the truth of Psalm 33.
May I revere You as I should. May I and all the
inhabitants of the world stand in awe of You,
for Your counsel and plans stand forever.

When we die to all about us, we live to God above us.

A Very Happy Gratituesday to you, Amy!

[JustAmy]

Sorry that I didn't get back yesterday, Meg. I had another doctor type appt and was exhausted when I got home.
After helping Marissa with homwork and then fixing a simple dinner, I was ready for bed.
Haven't been sleeping very well which hasn't helped my daytime stamina. LOL

Have a delightful GratiTuesday.

[JustAmy]

Thank you, Potlatch.
Sorry that I missed you yesterday .... just not enough hours in the day.

Hope you are having a wonderful GratiTuesday.

[JustAmy]

I don't tell you often enough, Rus, but I appreciate you being here everyday.
Because of you, Amy's Place continues to be here for all of us.

Have a Blessed GratiTuesday.

[MEG33]

You don’t need to apologize, Amy..I know and we know how fortunate we are to have you here at all.
Many times I have to post and run.
I am so grateful for you and Just Amy’s.
Graphic isn’t showing for me but I thank you.

[MEG33]

Lovely, Amy...and Amen.

[JustAmy]

Thank you, Yorkie.
I enjoyed working with that graphic.

Hope you are doing good. Wishing you a wonderful GratiTuesday.

[JustAmy]

Happy Spring, Meg.
Try clicking on the graphic and click show graphic.
It shouldn't disappear since I uploaded it.

I need to leave again today, the imaging place called an hour or so ago and want me to come back today for another mammogram.
They probably saw something they could not rule out yesterday.
I get so tired of running to Fresno 3 times a week.

Wishing you a lovely spring day and a happy GratiTuesday.

[JustAmy]

Thank you, Meg.

*Good GratiTuesday To Amy's Place*

For each new morning with its light,
For rest and shelter of the night,
For health and food, for love and friends,
For everything Thy goodness sends.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

I'm so grateful for the Sunday showers we had!
I Wish You A Lovely Grateful Day
