WHO IS GOD TO YOU?

“I will love thee, O Lord, my strength.  The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower…Psalm 

This psalm should really be called the Me psalm, especially these first two verses.

I just love how it starts, I will love the Lord, what a wonderful statement for the psalmist to make. We all need to say every morning, in every moment. That we love the Lord. In fact, have you ever just spoken to God and said out loud? I love you Lord. try it, because it is so beautiful and our Lord loves to hear it. God loves us so much, and gives us his love unconditionally, how often do we tell Him that we Love him?

There are 9 “my” statements in these two verses, all of these apply to us in different ways, my strength may apply to someone more than it applies to another person.

For me, the one that stands out is the one right in the middle. My God. its right in the middle. Maybe you don’t find that significant. That’s what ties all these together, all the others are important, God is all these things and more to me, but He is My God. my personal Lord. The one who is Lord over my life, who has control over it.

Make these verses personal, whatever MY is yours. make it personal.  God is not some far off figure, He is MY/YOUR …, He is ours and we are His. amen.

God bless you
