Today's Verse: Psalm 62:7

Saturday, March 27, 2010

My salvation and my honor depend on God; he is my mighty rock, my refuge.
— Psalm 62:7

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

Who we are, what becomes of us in life, and what we accomplish of significance are all in God's hands. We cannot achieve lasting honor for ourselves without his blessing. We cannot secure our future or our safety without his protection and blessing. The basis of all achievement and glory is dependent upon our willingly placing our lives in his care because he alone is permanent, eternal, and offers us life that is unending, with our future secure.

Video Commentary...

We've included Phil's ToGather video from four years ago as an added blessing to our verse today:

My Prayer...

O God, you are my Rock, the Fortress of my life. I place myself in your care. Please take charge of my future and use me for your glory. In you I take refuge, and on your strength I rely to make my days worthwhile and my life to make a difference in my world. I seek you and your Kingdom above all other entanglements, distractions, or goals. In the precious name of Jesus, I pray. Amen.
