"Thoughts To Make Your Heart Sing may be the best, first introduction for children to have their own time with God." — Dr. Tim Keller |
God's Title: His Name is Lord by Sally Lloyd-Jones, from Thoughts to Make Your Heart Sing |
When someone important is being introduced, the announcer usually says, “Mr. So-And-So — Founder of This Extra-Important Company!” or, “Miss Something Else — Nobel-Prize-Winning Inventor of This Brilliant Thing!” Do you know how God likes to be introduced? His name is the Lord... Father to the fatherless, defender of widows. — Psalm 68:4-5 (NLT) Our Almighty God, who sifted stars through His fingers, stands not with kings and princes, but with the weak, the powerless, the poor. Because the people no one else thinks are important have a special place in God’s heart. He hears their cries. He fights for them and defends them. And one night long ago, in Bethlehem, He stepped out of Heaven and became one of them.

Is that how you think of God — as the One who aligns with the outcast, underappreciated, disenfranchised, stepped on, poor, orphans, and widows? As the One who stands with you in your own powerlessness? Today, let’s meditate upon the outrageousness of God to have stepped out of Heaven to stand with us and defend us! |
