Pretty day to day AND pretty windy.  Clouds coming in this evening and we may yet see some rain.
The next few days are supposed to be cooler – more like April than May.
Psalm 103:1-2 Bless the Lord, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.
2 Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:
It is easy for us to get tied down with cares as we go about this life.
Sometimes we forget that God has given us so much.  We cannot equate God’s gifts in a material manner – although that is our tenacity.
We have the honor and privilege of having an audience, whenever we wish, whether day or night with the King.
Our salvation affords us special consideration as we come before Him – but all too often we use that time with a ‘I need, I want’ conversation.
All too often our conversations with God are not that at all, but our demand that He listen to us and solve all our problems.
We become like spoiled children, dwelling on what our parents have not given us, rather than thanking them for their compassion, love and sacrifices on our behalf.
God loves us so much that He sent His Son to die for us.  He sacrificed His Son so that we too could be His children.
If He does no other thing for us, He deserves all our praise and thanksgiving for that expense, the blood of His Son.
Rather than continually asking for things, rather than ranting over perceived wrongs to us, let us take time to just focus on God and give Him the honor He deserves.
Later, Art :-)
