His Glory

A sweet friend texted me today in a time of need, it read, 'Joshua 1:9, "Do not be afraid or dismayed today for i am with you wherever you go" His presence is your PEACE.' The next text read, 'Ps. 55:22, "as you cast every one of your cares on the Lord today, He will sustain you." ' Isn't it great when the Lord uses His word and His people to speak right to where you are and what your needs are at that time? And i don't just think he does this for Christians. I think it's especially neat when He manifests Himself and what He is about to those that do not believe in Him. To me it expresses the ultimate, that He IS love. I've been reading a book lately called Could It Be This Simple? A Biblical Model For Healing The Mind, and it has brought some new light to who God really is for me and what makes Him so powerful, strong and glorious. I supposed I related His great and mighty power to His glory and though they do go hand in hand, His power is not what makes Him most glorious, it's his love! So if His love is what makes Him so incredibly glorious how awesome must His love really be?! I quote, "The power isn't what is most important. Instead, it is the trustworthiness of the One who possesses all the power. It is the demonstration of His source of divine glory. For example, although God is all-powerful, He can never be provoked-even in the most abusive and horrendous circumstance-to use His power for self-interest. When humanity fully recognizes this, it will restore trust and regenerate love, and we will then open our hearts and minds to Him for healing and restoration."


Are you being touched, restored and healed by the love of God and through the love of others? What does that look like and how can you position yourself in a place to receive it?


Thank you my sweet friend for being LOVE to me today!
