I was blog surfing today and ran across this post about Psalms 144: 1-2 and I wanted to share it with all of you.

This is based on the NIV of Psalms 144: 1-2 which reads :

"Praise be to the LORD my Rock, who trains my hands for war, my fingers for battle. He is my loving God and my fortress, my stronghold and my deliverer, my shield, in whom I take refuge, who subdues peoples under me:

• You'll never know God as Lord, until you've humbled your heart in submission to Him in prayer. He is the one true God.
• You'll never know God is your Rock, until you've needed him to help you stand!
• You'll never know Him as your Loving God, until you've understood the sacrifice Jesus made on the cross - just for you.
• You'll never know God as your Fortress, your Stronghold, until you've had no where to turn, and He scooped you up and into His loving arms.
• You'll never know Him as your Deliverer, until you have found yourself totally powerless and reached out to Him to do what only He can do.
• You'll never know Him as your Shield, until you've been attacked by a brutal enemy.
• You'll never know Him as your Refuge, until you've found yourself without hope.

It spoke to me when I read this and I wanted to share it with all of you unchanged from the authors post at http://mypassionatepursuit-lisa.blogspot.com/ .

Read it and dwell on it for a few a minutes. I hope all of you are having a wonderful day in the Lord.
In Christ
