WHEN YOU NEED TO SLOW DOWN

The Lord is my pacesetter; I shall not rush;
He makes me stop and rest for quiet intervals;
He provides me with images of stillness, which restore my serenity;
He leads me in ways of efficiency through calmness of mind, and His
guidance is peace; Even though I have a great many things to accomplish
each day, I will not fret, for His presence is here; His timelessness, His
all-importance will keep me in balance; He prepares refreshment and
renewal in the midst of my activity By anointing my head with his oil of
tranquility; My cup of joyous energy overflows; surely harmony and
effectiveness shall be the fruit of my hours; For I shall walk in the
peace of my Lord, and dwell in His house forever. May the peace of God be
yours as you give of your best in service to those in your care. Amen.

From Awe To Adoration

I will praise You, O LORD, with my whole heart; I will tell of all Your marvelous works. —Psalm 9:1

What's the greatest activity we can spend time doing? Worshiping God! Worship is not repeating hasty, routine petitions or listening to mood-inducing music. Worship is the experience of being "lost in wonder, love, and praise," as Charles Wesley wrote. It's awe that inspires adoration.

My first sight of the Grand Canyon left me speechless. The friend who had driven me there appreciated my reaction and stood silent beside me. I gazed in awe at this magnificent spectacle and thought, This is a glimpse of God's majesty. But my awe, by itself, was not worship.

My reaction is different when I come face to face with Jesus in the Scriptures. Awe changes into adoration as I behold Him in all His beauty. What grips my soul? His unsullied purity: "Which of you convicts Me of sin?" (John 8:46). His unrivaled wisdom: "No man ever spoke like this Man!" (John 7:46). His unbounded pity: "When He saw the multitudes, He was moved with compassion" (Matt. 9:36). And His overwhelming majesty: "He was transfigured before them" (Matt. 17:2).

As I see Jesus in the Gospels, my awe changes to adoration. I bow in worship and exclaim with Thomas: "My Lord and my God!" (John 20:28). Vernon C Grounds

Behold Him there! The risen Lamb!
My perfect, spotless righteousness;
The great, unchangeable I AM,
The King of glory and of grace.  —Bancroft

True worship of Christ changes admiration into adoration.

Bible in One Year  Jeremiah 18-19; 2 Timothy 3

Psalm 121

I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.
My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth.
He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.
Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.
The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.
The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.
The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul.
The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.

King James Version

In this week when the media gleefully reported the deaths of Americans and chortled when another fell and prayed that they'd die a little faster and sooner, it is good for us to remember the solid, loyal American troops that the lamestream media wants to see dead.

Lord God, it is our prayer that you would protect our soldiers, and give them the awareness they require to overwhelm their enemies in defeat. We also pray that You would turn the minds of those who believe in You toward their responsibility to vote. Let us keep this nation strong through Godly leaders and Godly laws.

We pray this in Jesus' name; Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Amen.
