Friends' Favorites - Absolutely Thrilling

It is good to give thanks to the Lord, to sing praises to the Most High. It is good to proclaim your unfailing love in the morning, your faithfulness in the evening, accompanied by the ten-stringed harp and the melody of the lyre. You thrill me, Lord, with all you have done for me! I sing for joy because of what you have done.
Psalm 92:1-4 New Living Translation

When was the last time you can say you were thrilled with what the Lord has done for you; as in - you FELT the thrill? Has it been awhile? If so, why? Have you forgotten?

In the big scheme of things, if we compare ourselves to the God of the whole universe, how important are we? And then to think, our lives and everything about us is of GREAT importance to the Creator. There's no guesswork in that - no supposition.

God is the Great I AM. He breathed life into a dustball and created mankind. It's that God who sent His Son - Alpha and Omega, Beginning and the End, Lord of all and over all, our Deliverer, our Healer, and our Righteousness - to die for us; to create a way for us to be in relationship with Him. He makes a way when most can't even hope for it. How? Through His Son, Jesus Christ. Christ IS the Way, the Truth and the Life.

Scripture defines Him as Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace, Holy One of the Highest, Emmanuel. He is our Advocate, our Righteous Judge. He is all-powerful, omnipotent, omniscient. He's King above all other kings. Royalty to the extreme and He desires a relationship with you. Aren't you absolutely thrilled about that?

Honey, if that don't light your fire, your wood's wet.

Prayer:

Father,
There is no thrill like the thrill when we come to the understanding of Your love for us. Open our understanding to all You would have us see and know. In Jesus' Name we pray. Amen
