The Lord is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; Of whom shall I be afraid? When the wicked came against me to eat up my flesh, My enemies and foes, They stumbled and fell. Though an army may encamp against me, My heart shall not fear; Though war may rise against me, In this I will be confident. One thing I have desired of the Lord, That will I seek: That I may dwell in the house of the Lord All the days of my life, To behold the beauty of the Lord, And to inquire in His temple. For in the time of trouble He shall hide me in His pavilion; In the secret place of His tabernacle He shall hide me; He shall set me high upon a rock. And now my head shall be [c]lifted up above my enemies all around me; Therefore I will offer sacrifices of joy in His tabernacle; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the Lord. Hear, O Lord, when I cry with my voice! Have mercy also upon me, and answer me. When You said, “Seek My face,” My heart said to You, “Your face, Lord, I will seek.” Do not hide Your face from me; Do not turn Your servant away in anger; You have been my help; Do not leave me nor forsake me, O God of my salvation. When my father and my mother forsake me, Then the Lord will take care of me. Teach me Your way, O Lord, And lead me in a smooth path, because of my enemies. Do not deliver me to the will of my adversaries; For false witnesses have risen against me, And such as breathe out violence. I would have lost heart, unless I had believed That I would see the goodness of the Lord In the land of the living. Wait on the Lord; Be of good courage, And He shall strengthen your heart; Wait, I say, on the Lord! (Psalm 27:1-14)
A Day of Thanksgiving.....Born Again to Live Forever with Christ . . .while every day is a day of thanksgiving when one is in Christ, today is a reminder that being born is one thing, but being BORN AGAIN is truly sorry celebrating!
Once born into the Kingdom of God, a life becomes alive! It is as if God breathes His Holy Spirit into one's life as He did with Adam. Adam became a living soul.
It's how I feel since being born again in the summer of 1992. My life became new....new goals, new plans, new career, new purpose. It has been a journey since; ups and downs, wins and losses, disappointments and celebrations, deaths and births. Yet through it all, the last 27 years have been the best because my sights are now on pleasing the Lord and not people! I may celebrate today, but I look forward to the grand celebration in eternity! Everything else pales in comparison! God alone deserves the credit!!!
