Summary of Ezekiel-Part 6

We had a great weekend at my husband's reunion. We celebrated my father in law's 90th birthday. We had pictures of his 6 children and spouses in frames, a mug with the names of his grandchildren, and a throw with the names of his great grands. Many grandchildren were able to show up, also. I hope you get a chance this summer to enjoy family time together. It rejuvenates and fills your love tank.

Psalm 89 has so many great verses. Here are a few:

Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: they shall walk, O LORD,  in the light of Thy countenance. In Thy name shall They rejoice all the day: and in Thy righteousness shall they be exalted. For Thou art the glory of their strength: and in Thy favor our horn shall be exalted. For the LORD is our defense: and they Holy One of Israel is our king. (89:16-18)

We need to make sure that we as believers in Jesus have actions that show righteousness, justice, love, and truth, which come from God. Those traits show we are walking in the light of God's countenance. On the other hand, being unfair, unloving, or dishonest in actions do not come from God.

Horn means strong one, referring to the coming Messiah. We have God's power to accomplish God's will. The Spirit will help us accomplish spiritual tasks that exceed our expectations. Then we give Him the glory.

If it is the Lord's will, we will live and do this or that. (James 4:15)

Are we living the abundant life? Abundant with challenges, running over with possibilities, filled with opportunities to adapt, alter, and change. I am convinced that is what Jesus meant for us to live abundant life. (Charles Swindoll)

Look up, child of God. Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. Look up. He is our strength, our wisdom, our meaning in life, for He is all we need, this mountain-moving God. No room for worry or doubt, for His love shines on us,  on this beauty day.
