HIS NAME SHALL ENDURE FOR EVER: HIS NAME SHALL BE CONTINUED AS LONG AS THE SUN…ALL NATIONS SHALL CALL HIM BLESSED…AND BLESSED HIS GLORIOUS NAME FOREVER…AMEN, AND AMEN

This time of the year brings a crescendo in the air. As I came across these words I thought they clothed this feeling well. I trust you may share the same exhilaration. May we enjoy this week in the spirit of these words. Let’s look beyond our perceptions of the “baby Jesus,” and even the form of the man communing in spirit with the glorious Spirit of the Lord! Let’s open to the myriad of ways  to so commune knowing the SOMETHING MORE in this life.

A Blessed Man

Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.

But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

These words of Psalm 1  bring to mind how we can live a life that is delighting.  It is very good

to catch ourselves when we find ourselves in agreement  with that which is distorted and not

of the character of what is true. It is also good not to stand in the way of blocking the rightful

expression of integrity through ourselves and others. Lastly, whenever we find ourselves scorning

something it is also good to catch ourselves from falling into the destructive patterns of hate.

As we so catch ourselves and stay true to an integrity that allows for the refreshing and renewing currents

of God to move through us we are indeed delighted.  Let us so live!
