Day 32/365 Bible in a Day

Today I am reading Psalm 12-14 and Job 9-10. But this blog is only from Psalm.

Chapter 12 was one of those chapters that makes me happy the Lord is always telling the truth. :D He is honest, totally and completely honest! No one else is so honest, so faithful. Even us, in all the faith we may have COMBINED cannot amount to God's faithfulness. The righteous people were slowly dwindling down to nothing in David's time. The liars and prideful people were taking over, leaving God's side, and literally telling each other that God didn't control anything, that their bodies were their own, no one else's. How sad would it be for so many people to turn their back on the Creator? But God heard all of this and instead of punishing everyone in the area He only punich the evil doers. He picked through the people and saved and uplifted the righteous people. God protects His followers and loves us ALL.

Chapter 13 Ever felt like you were in so much despair that the world could end and you really couldn't care less? That's how David felt when he wrote this Psalm. He felt like God had literally forgotten him. But then in the midst of his suffering he remember! OH my goodness he remembered that God could return "the sparkle to his eye" and that he could definitely trust God and His "unfailing love". This is so beautiful that we have a Creator who loves us, provides for us, and even cared enough to make the place we dwell a beautiful land and not a trash can. :D I just love God.

Chapter 14 brings one word to mind. WOW! Have you ever met that profound atheist? The one who swears up and down on their own life that there is no God. There never was, there never will be, we are all our own person, no one can tell us what to do...? I know I have. Especially on Twitter.. Oh my. Haha, but do you see what God says about them? It is totally different to not know a God like ours exists than to "know" and deny. God says through David that "Only fools say in their heart, 'there is no God'". So true. God also says, "He looks down to see if anyone truly seeks God" and that He will protect His people from the oppression of the ungodly. :D Our God is an AWESOME God!
