BUT AS FOR ME…HOW ABOUT YOU?

Psalm 73:23-25 & 28 NLT
Yet I still belong to you;
you hold my right hand.
24 You guide me with your counsel,
leading me to a glorious destiny.
25 Whom have I in heaven but you?
I desire you more than anything on earth.
28 But as for me, how good it is to be near God!
I have made the Sovereign Lord my shelter,
and I will tell everyone about the 
wonderful things you do.

No matter what is happening around us we can still always say, “Yet I still belong to You”. Nothing and no one can take us out of God’s loving hand. He holds us steady through the fire and flood or the famine and out the other side. He never abandons us and is always faithful so we can rejoice today with hearts that are overflowing with gratitude to Him.

He has promised to guide us throughout our lives and in Christ we all have this glorious destiny he speaks about, but his focus is totally on God. He desires God more than anything else on earth! That is a big statement. Lord give us hearts that seek You above family or fortune, or anything else that would seek to steal Your first place in our hearts.

Then the psalmist gets very personal and he says, “As for me…” How about you? and I’m speaking to me too.😊 Have we made the Sovereign Lord our shelter today, have we drawn near to God today? 

The Holy Spirit is drawing us to Him with cords of love so let’s do as he says, and then go out and tell everyone about the wonderful things God has done for us and is doing still. In Jesus name. Amen.
