You Don’t Have To Be A Jedi
To Know
The Day Starts And Ends
With
Two Things.
Psalm 95:6
O come, let us worship and bow down, let us kneel before the Lord, our Maker!
1 Timothy 1:17
To the King of the ages, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.
Words of Grace For Today
Two things to get straight at the beginning of …
well at the beginning of every day
and the beginning of anything:
First thing is that God is due worship and praise. (I’m not sure about ‘on bended knee’ now that mine are old and do not like to be bent, yet alone knelt on. Kneepads help, but just a bit. – I trust that God knows about that, too.)
Second thing is that we are miserable sinners, or actually we are tremendously good at sinning, and telling ourselves that we have not sinned, not terribly anyway. So confessing our sins puts us right with our reality.
God is Great; we are great at being terrible.
Humble pie and songs of thanks: makes a blessed start … to anything.
