Psalm 63:2 I have seen you in the sanctuary and beheld your power and your glory.
Psa 63:3 Because your love is better than life, my lips will glorify you.
Psa 63:4 I will praise you as long as I live, and in your name I will lift up my hands.
Psa 63:5 My soul will be satisfied as with the richest of foods; with singing lips my mouth will praise you.
Psa 63:6 On my bed I remember you; I think of you through the watches of the night.
Psa 63:7 Because you are my help, I sing in the shadow of your wings.
Psa 63:8 My soul clings to you; your right hand upholds me.
It is easy to claim that the love of God is better than life, but when things arent going quit like we would like, when things are difficult, trials come, ….are we satisfied by His love and knowing Him alone?
I will praise Him as long as I live is an unconditional determination, a setting of our will and mind to praise God and who He is in spite of our circumstances. Is my soul satisfied and do i sing His praise even in the darkest times of my life?
As I lay to sleep, do I ponder His greatness and Sovereignty or do I dwell on the negative possibilities of my situation or whatever struggles i may be dealing with? God is my help, HE is my refuge, and He has promised to never leave or forsake me. I WILL cling to Him and He will uphold me.
God is our hope in every circumstance of life that we would not chose to be. Whether that be just hectic chaotic days or tragic and devestating circumstances. He doesnt change, He is God through it all. He will walk us through. We must focus on Him and His character. We must fight all the temptations to think the worst, doubt, fear, …..with the knowledge that all is filtered through His loving hands and He will work good things out of it all.
Trust in Him
