This morning's sermon at Church was on Psalm 139:1-10. It was an excellent service & I encourage you to read the scripture again or perhaps for the first time. Verse 1 alone, "Oh Lord, you have searched me and you know me", is enough to both scare me and fill me with joy at the same time. It scares me because with God there are no secrets & my sin cannot be hidden. It fills me with joy because I know I can never be the man I should be, but that's OK because Jesus Christ gave himself for me so I wouldn't have to be. I am redeemed!
One other observation I want to share with you from this mornings service. Men out numbered the women two to one. Men with battle hardened faces, some with wives and children and many on their own or with other Godly men. What significance does this hold? Perhaps it is but a small sign that our men, God's men, are ready to fulfill their roles as the spiritual leaders of their families, Churches & communities. Not weak men, but men of great courage, strength & power. I was moved by their presence.
Thank you Lord for all You do & all You are. God bless our military & God bless our Country.
Isaiah 6:8 "Here am I. Send me!"
