Yeah...that should tell you something...my brain is stuck in gear and it keeps going round and round...but nothing happens...So...this may just be a blog about nothing! Remember the Jerry Seinfeld show...they said it started out as a "show about nothing"...and look what a hit it became! So maybe there's hope for me yet!
Maybe I just need to get back to my "roots"...
and write about what I know...
This was the Psalm we read this morning in our devotions, and this is what I know best:
Psalm 145 (portions thereof)
1. I will extol You, my God, O King;
And I will bless Your name forever and ever.
2. Every day I will bless You,
and I will praise Your name forever and ever.
3. Great is the Lord,
and greatly to be praised;
And His greatness is unsearchable.
4. One generation shall praise
Your works to another,
and shall declare Your mighty acts.
5. I will meditate on the glorious splendor
of Your majesty,
and on Your wondrous works."
Yes, this is where I need to be...back to my roots...God's Word...where it all began... and every day, regardless of what other stuff may seem to be so important out there in blogland...I need to remember that my first order of business is to glorify God through the pages of this blog...to meditate "on the glorious splendor of Your majesty and on Your wondrous works."
There are plenty of blogs out there on every topic under the sun...and that's quite all right. I sometimes dabble in other things too...and like to tell about it...but if I get too far away from my base...God's Word...I begin to falter and lose my focus. Thankfully:
14. "The Lord upholds all who fall,
and raises up all who are bowed down.
15. The eyes of all look expectantly to You,
and You give them their food in due season.
16. You open Your hand and satisfy the desire
of every living thing."
21. My mouth shall speak the praise of the Lord,
and all flesh shall bless His Holy Name
forever and ever."
You know, we have an awesome privilege here in "blogland"...to be able to declare God's "mighty acts"...and to "speak of the might of God's awesome acts." I fear that someday someone may try to take this wonderful privilege away from us...and before that happens, I want to do my part to
11. "They shall speak of the glory of Your kingdom,
and talk of Your power...
12. To make known to the sons of men His mighty acts,
and the glorious majesty of His kingdom."
I hope you agree...this is what it's all about.
It's not a blog about nothing at all!
It's about the most important thing in the universe!
13. "Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,
and Your dominion endures throughout all generations."
Praise God!!!
Amen!
