how awesome is the Word...

this morning as i was reading Gods Word and thinking about what to write, i decided to take some time and type out scripture that spoke to me this morning and other times in my life. i trust that the following scripture verses will touch you and speak to you as they have to me.

Psalm 100

"Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth. worship the Lord with gladness; come before Him with joyful songs. know that the Lord is God. It is He who made us, and we are His we are His people, the sheep of His pasture. enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise; give thanks to Him and praise His name. for the Lord is good and His love endures forever; His faithfulness continues through all generations."

Psalm 27

Verse 1: "The Lord is my light and my salvation whom shall i fear? the Lord is the stronghold of my life of whom shall i be afraid?" Verse 13: "I am still confident of this: i will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living." Verse 14: "Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord."

all of these verses are verses that have touched me in tremendous ways. i have opened my Bible and have read them countless times. it helps me immensely to have verses that i can run to and read. of course there are many other Bible verses that have helped me, filled my heart with joy, peace, strength, etc. however, this morning the ones that i have typed came to mind immediately and touched me deeply. my prayer is that they will do the same for you. mediate on them. let the words sink in, for each word has been inspired by the awesome God of our universe.
