Tell Us What You Really Think…

Before I comment on today’s reading let me first apologize. For the past few weeks my posts have been coming on Tuesday instead of Monday. It seems that Monday’s have been so full I have barely had time to read my reading for the day, much less sit down and write about them. Tuesday’s to be honest have not been much better but I am committed to getting something up no later then Tuesday if at all possible. After next week some of the things, which have been demanding my time early in the week, will be out of the way so I hope to be able to post earlier. Thank you for your patience, prayers, and prodding to keep me on task.
There was so much in today’s reading that one could elaborate on. However, I could not get away from the sections out of Psalms. The writer certainly thought highly of God. The descriptions of God’s power, control, steadfastness, love and glory are wonderful in this section of scripture. As I read many of these verses I thought to myself “what a line!” Or, “I wish I would have said that!” May I ask you a question? How would your place of employment, school, town, or community be different if you spoke this highly of God? When was the last time you even attempted to tell those you know or love what you really think about God? What do you really think about Him? Who is He to you? Have you ever thought about it? The world would be different if we really knew God the way the writer of these Psalms did, and if we had the courage to tell the world what we really thought about Him. Strange isn’t it, we tell the world what we think about politics, family, religion, taxes, and ourselves, but we seldom express what we really think about God. Why? Maybe it is because we don’t know. Taking the 192 challenge myself for the fourth year has taught me this one thing. I still have much to learn about God. There is more to know, more to experience, and more left to understand of Him then I can even comprehend. I want to know God like the writer of the Psalms did. Not for my own benefit, although that will be a welcomed byproduct, but I want to know God like this so I can tell people what I really think about Him. Why are we holding back? Join me and make it your aim to tell someone what you really think about God each and every day you are given the breath to speak!
