O WORSHIP THE LORD IN THE BEAUTY OF HOLINESS: FEAR BEFORE HIM, ALL THE EARTH. PSALM 96

In the beauty of holiness are such beautiful words. In thinking of the words fear before him it is good to remember that fear relates to awe and reverence. Fear before him does not mean being afraid of the Lord it means reverence before him. All the earth can relate to ourselves. All the earth of ourselves. All of our heart, mind and body in reverence before him brings the experience of the beauty of holiness something pure and real. Let’s remember in our living to revere the Lord with all which gifts us with something that is pure and whole, sound and real.

The Beauty of the LORD our God

And let the beauty of the LORD our God be upon us… Psalm 90

Also such beautiful words. As we enter into the spirit of them a door is opened to know a state of beauty. A state where all is in place. A state where we know ourselves. How do we let the beauty of the LORD our God be upon us? By lifting up our eyes and minds and hearts acknowledging that such a presence exists and has  always existed.  As we give heed to this state we are gifted with the beauty of true peace.  Here life is worth living because as we so abide we offer this beauty and peace into the world and we so know our destiny moment by moment. Let us so live.
