So, you know how in church people tell you all the time that the morning is the best time to talk to God? That is actually based in Scripture. I didn't know that. I really just kind of dismissed that for a really long time, because I was all, "I can talk to God whenever I please, thank you." [On an unrelated note: I'm incredibly stubborn.] I was having my quiet time with God this morning, and was just kind of flipping through my Bible, and came across Psalm 5:3. It says, "In the morning, Lord, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait expectantly." And this morning's time with Him just affirmed that.
I have an 8am class this semester, my first one of my college career, and I listen to Christian music on the way to it. Usually Kari Jobe, Anthem Lights, Jesus Culture, or Chris August, just because they make life better with their music. So, I usually spend those few minutes praising God for another day anyway, but in addition to that, today, I had a few extra minutes between classes. I went to the EUC, up to the third floor, and just sat and prayed and read my Bible. I read Psalm 81, 82, and 84, as well Psalm 5. Those just impressed upon me how MIGHTY God really is. It reminded me that this life really isn't about me, and that God has expectations of me as his child, but even if I fail Him (which I will) His love neverevernever changes. Those words of God's love were written thousands and thousands of years ago, but they remain true. God's love is so incredible!!! Walking to the lounge, I just wanted to scream, "GOD LOVES YOU! Do you get that yet?!" I don't know. God just impressed upon me once again how amazingly gracious He is.
I could never love Him the way He deserves, but He shows me love and mercy anyway.
Just a quick blog praising the One who deserves it all.
