Today’s message comes to us from Psalm 67. It’s an awesome prayer; and an awesome boost to the day. It’s a short one, so I’ll post the whole thing. This one comes from the ESV translation.
“May God be gracious to us and bless us and make his face to shine upon us, Selah
that your way may be known on earth, your saving power among all nations. Let the peoples praise you, O God; let all the peoples praise you!
Let the nations be glad and sing for joy, for you judge the peoples with equity and guide the nations upon earth. Selah Let the peoples praise you, O God; let all the peoples praise you! The earth has yielded its increase; God, our God, shall bless us. God shall bless us; let all the ends of the earth fear him!”
I like the very first two verses best, I think. It tells us that God’s face shining on us makes know to us His Way, and in turn, the whole earth comes to know His Way through that. I also love the sixth verse. It assures me that, even though the ground is cursed because of Adam and Eve’s sin, the earth will yield its increase to us; all because of God’s steadfast love.
May your day be increased with hope, peace, love and laughter, and joy in the LORD/Lord. May your whole month be increased by, and in, the LORD/Lord.
Love you from cafe du Mondieu
