To Pause & Reflect
Posted By Michael On 29th November 2004 @ 17:27 In theology | No Comments
For a year or two now I’ve received [1] RBC Ministries’ “[2] Our Daily Bread,” a free devotional pamphlet that outlines simple Biblical truths in plain-English bites of a small page each. On the front of every issue is a picture of something out of nature along with a Bible verse.
The January 2005 edition of ODB features Psalm 143:5, which says,
I meditate on all Your works;
I muse on the works of Your hands.
Usually I just overlook these little pithy verses as being a part of the formatting of the devotional guide, but this time I took a moment to consider: do I really meditate on everything God has done for me? Do I meditate on my salvation, on the works of His hands, the celestial bodies and nature? No, to be frank, I haven’t in a long while. Well, here’s to a renewed committment. Cure for depression and anxiety: think of what God’s done for me (I’m breathing, I’m alive, I’m saved, for three; go from there!) and thank Him. Just a thought.
