God took me to Psalm 93 this morning. The last verse in The Passion Translation reads, Nothing could ever change your royal decrees; they will last forever! Holiness is the beauty that fills your house; you are the one who abides forevermore! David wrote this Psalm in awe of God pouring out His love, mercy, and grace over all who will accept it. I am so blessed to have been raised by godly parents who shared God's love freely with others. Even in times when money was tight they always found a way to be generous with others. What a legacy they left for all of us. I miss my Daddy and Momma. Some days it seems are so much harder than others. The last couple of days have been very hard. So many times I've wanted to call them to talk. So many things I've wanted to share with them. I've wanted to hear my Daddy say, "Now Sheila Babe you can't give up" or Momma say, 'Lean into God, Sheila Babe' as I deal with some things in life. Tears have fallen and emotions have been high. I am thankful for the years I had with my parents and for all the memories made. We never know when our time with loved ones will be over and need to make the best of every moment we have with them. I was thinking about relationships that need mending and healing to occur. This morning I am reminded of Paul's words in I Corinthians 13 that describes love. We neede to live with love as a way of life as we strive to live Christ-like. Relationships are not always easy yet they can be so rewarding. Being in relationship with God is very rewarding. Oh how I pray for more people to not just know Him but to be in relationship with Him. The last few nights when going to bed I've had a song Kari Jobe sings called "Revelation"...
Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty
Who was and is and is to come
With all creation I sing praise to the King of kings
You are my everything and I will adore You
I will adore You
