Today’s Thought “Gift Bags vs. Wrapping” G. Ward Psalm 73 28 But as for me, the nearness of God is good for me; I have made the Lord GOD my refuge, so that I may tell of all Your works. Asaph would register great complaint in this psalm as he would ponder all the success from those negligent in honoring Holy God and whereas it appeared that those who sought faithfulness (unto the Lord) endured greater sufferings, his carnal mindset would be disquieted, revealing a spiritual, reverent response. In arrival towards better sensibility, gratefulness gained entry to know that a relationship determined in total dependence on the Creator remains more than anything (vv.17-24). Someone may be missing, along with gifts presented from lesser stores and while meteorologists have determined extreme cold, along with 9 hours of sunlight, may it all be overshadowed by a spiritual sensibility found in you that allows Heaven’s warmth to comfort your heart, particularly as you envelope the love relationship with Holy God who absolutely loves you.
