Psalm 34:2 New International Version (NIV)
2 I will glory in the Lord;
let the afflicted hear and rejoice.
let the afflicted hear and rejoice.
We have no basis to boast in our own might. We can't
preserve our life. We can't topple kingdoms. We can't see the edge of the
heavens. We can't determine the future or change the past. So what do we have
in which we can boast? God! We are living proof of his grace and mercy — he
saved us when we didn't deserve it, he rescued us from sin and death when we
had no power to preserve our life. Those in sorrow, brokenness, and night can
look at us and rejoice, because we are living proof God saves the sinner,
raises up the disheartened, and mends the broken. Praise the LORD for his
glory. Praise the LORD for his grace.
Thought for today:
Do I extol God in all I do?
