5/5/2011 - LJ "Cry out to the LORD"

Scripture:
Psalm 20: 1-2 "May the Lord answer you in the day of trouble! May the name of the God of Jacob set you securely on high! May He send you help from the sanctuary And support you from Zion!

Observation:
There so so many people who doubt teachings from Jesus himself. They have questioned and hated all his disciples. But He was able to call out to his Father for forgiveness of those who are doubtful of him, and to lift up those trouble souls. Just like when I am troubled with things around me, family or personal why do I doubt that God has plans within the troubles I go through. He answers my trouble by teaching and guiding me to over come from the troubles I go through. Like family struggle with my aunts and cousins against my parents, He hasn't given up because my parents are at peace, they tried to amend the relationship and problem, but if my aunt and cousin cannot see that and are filled with greed in their heart, He will provide my parents with much blessing and He will ultimately judge the greed of their actions and words.

Application:
His disciples had so much love for him, and desire for him. Where is my love and desire for God? It seems like my feeling are occasional when I am more troubled, I listen and talk to God more then when things go well. But where is the balance in that? Talk to God for the goods and blessings and along with troubles I face, God is jealous God, he wants us all for himself at all times. He will reward and uplift me high from the troubles and will bring much more blessing on top of what I have already. Love him for goods and the bad in life, for my ultimate goal is to get closer to that path of his kingdom. To do so, I cannot be occasional God seeker.

Prayer:
Father God forgive me for I have sinned. For a sinner you have blessed me much, abundance in my life and your unconditional love. Father God, help and teach me to like your faithful servant, who priorities you for the goods and the bad. Lord you know the past, present and future, you bring much bumps in my life to make me a stronger and faithful servant, Father I want to succeed in your teaching, help me to succeed by speaking through your words. Father God, I know you are the ultimate judge, Father help me and my family not to fail that test. Guide us to mold our hearts with new heart of cleanness. Stir our hearts to forgive and love those who have brought much pain and suffering. But Father our suffering is so minimal in comparison to the heavy cross you carried and nails on your hands and feet to be hung to wash our filthy sins away. Father thank you, thank you for your mercy and your love upon me and my family. Father I ask you will guide us to be faithful servant that our actions and words in this words bring praise to your kingdom. Thank you for your protection and your strength to keep me and my family going everyday. Father I love you, and let our love for you grow daily. In your holy name Amen!
