Orienting in the way of these words positions us to provide for our world. Whether we remember to do this when we find ourselves in a bit of intensity or when we may be feeling great opening up to what it means to praise the LORD with our whole heart lets us acknowledge our opportunities and provide something of beauty into and through them. Here we are the blessing we are meant to be. Let’s let this awareness deepen in our heart that we may be blessing during this holiday season.
I HAVE ORDAINED A LAMP FOR MINE ANOINTED
I find as I still myself to enter the spirit of these words something else is illuminated beyond just the surface content of them. Here an invitation is sounded for us to know the reality of trust as we work to restore the world to its natural beauty and integration. May these words continue to open the way for each of us to play our parts in restoring the world.
EVEN FOR EVER
In the psalms such statements “even for ever,” are noted in them giving reference to the LORD and the nature of God. In reading them they struck me as statements to consider. “Even for ever,” gives such an all encompassing proclamation. I find it striking to open up to the absoluteness and eternal nature of God clothed in temporal terms as “even for ever.” May these words do the same for you.
THEY THAT TRUST IN THE LORD AS MOUNT ZION—
“which cannot be removed, but abideth for ever.” As the world appears in this day I find it good to acknowledge that having an orientation in the Lord brings a sense of eternity in the midst. Let’s continue to increasingly appreciate what it means to trust in the Lord as a mighty mountain that cannot be removed and abideth for ever. Let’s stand together in such representation blessing the world with largeness and strength for all to know the reality of IN GOD WE TRUST.
GREAT PEACE HAVE THEY THAT LOVE THY LAW AND NOTHING SHALL OFFEND THEM
Have they that love thy law—consider these words deep in heart. As we do our perspective is refreshed. Here we come to rest and know a peace that puts it all in perspective. Why not live each moment whereby we are in position to SEE and not be vulnerable to taking offense. This does take practice for the prevalence of taking offense has been with us for millenniums. Why not be an individual example of one who remains in the heart place of “loving thy law.”
As we each do so world transformation takes place moment by moment. Let’s consider this meditation in the depth of our hearts making corrections as necessary and establishing the sound emanation of love through us all.
THY WORD VERY PURE
As we orient to the Word there comes the experience of purity. Purity that brings also an experience of oneness. In this oneness comes a calm and a peace that puts things in perspective and gives coherent sequence to our lives.
Orienting to the Word of God takes an interest to come into oneness with it. I find reserving time in the evening before going to sleep and in the morning before I start my worldly day to be vital in knowing more of this communion. During these times immersing ourselves in that which we acknowledge to be of God allows for an increasing experience of oneness.
Take the time to know the purity of the Word. As we do we are gifted with something so wonderful as well as being in position to extend its wonderful influences into the world.
O HOW LOVE I THY LAW!
The wording of this psalm verse causes us to slow down to really comprehend what is being spoken here. Slow down enough to read and understand the meaning of these words. As we do a communion is experienced that goes beyond words that is wonderful and true.
STRENGTHEN ME UNTO THY WORD
As we hold this premise in our hearts before speaking or acting it serves to bring our expression into alignment with the natural expression that would emanate from the LORD through us. Here we can provide sound and sane influences into the world.
THIS THE DAY THE LORD HATH MADE; WE WILL REJOICE AND BE GLAD IN IT.
We really only have one day to live each day. When we realize this we can receive it as a very great gift. Here we rejoice and are very glad in it!!!
HE HATH COMMANDED HIS COVENANT FOR EVER
The covenant is always extended from the LORD. We just have to honor and receive it. In this agreement we are whole.
