Today’s Thought “Running Aimlessly” G. Ward

 

Psalm 34:1 I will bless the Lord at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth. ² My soul will make its boast in the Lord; The humble will hear it and rejoice.

 

While King David appears to be the subject of the immediacy when great troubles demands a quick response, particularly as he’s faced with being hunted by a first King for Israel (Saul), who sought to kill David from mere jealousy, David, in all his speedy presumption ran straight to the arms of the Phillistine King in a nation where’d he received great notoriety for killing their greatest warrior (Goliath). His trust of the Almighty through many trials before witnessed great and notable fortitude, yet this encounter caused such fear, so much so that he’d distant himself from a desired spiritual character, pretending to be insane. This great, opposing king would immediately dismiss David, by asking those servants of his, “Do I lack insane people” (?).

There’s great futility for you and me, every-time we venture to satisfy moments in our estimation in what could be a benefit or harmful to our journey in the Almighty’s earth. Our Lord’s insights are remarkably superior and Only HE knows all and whereas HE is ALL Wisdom and generously desires to impute that unto us, particularly as we trust and obey, we run to our King.

 

Father God, we see ourselves in David and desire more of Thee; asking Your forgiveness, whenever our leading usurps Your greatest guidance. May we journey in this day provided, surrendered to the attitude of our Lord Jesus, demanding of ourselves as HE did, “not MY will, but Yours be done” all because of Jesus, Amen.
