to make music to your name, O Most High,
to proclaim your truth in the morning
and your truth in the watches of the night,
on the ten stringed lyre and the lute,
with the murmuring sound of the harp.
Your deeds, O Lord, have made me glad;
for the works of your hands I shout with joy.
O Lord, how great are your works!
How deep are your designs!
The foolish man cannot know this
and the fool cannot understand
(Psalm 92, 1-5)
These words of Psalm 92 are not the only words of Scripture that touch my heart, but they beautifully sing to my spirituality and spiritual life. Everyone has, even if they do not like to admit it or acknowledge its existence, a spiritual life and some relationship with the Divine, with God.
It is my conviction that when we acknowledge this reality of our lives, we experience and live life most fully and are most complete. As the psalmist writes, God's deeds have made us glad and we can't help but make music to the Lord! What I love so much about this Psalm is that it captures something of the fact that God's deeds, His Designs, are deep and mysterious. The "foolish" can't understand and accept this - they need to see to believe. The wise, though, are those who accept the mysteriousness of God and thus are drawn to Him.
That which is most real is also the most mysterious and transcendent. If we allow for us to enter into the mysterious, we have allowed ourselves to enter into God and the fullness of life!
I wished to create this blog to share myself and that which I find to be fulfilling, interesting, fun, relevant, good, true and beautiful. Ultimately, I wish to share the awesomeness of God through all the ways He is made known.
Thank You for reading and I hope you come a little closer to knowing and experiencing God in your life
