My 2025 Theme Verses: Ezra 7:10 (ESV) For Ezra had set his heart to study the Law of the LORD, and to do it and to teach his statutes and rules in Israel. Daniel 1:8 (ESV) But Daniel resolved that he would not defile himself with the king’s food, or with the wine that he drank. Therefore he asked the chief of the eunuchs to allow him not to defile himself.

Lovingkindness - Psalm 63-65
I don't know how many times I have read through the book of Psalms or how long I have journaled that reading of them. It has been a decade long process for me. For several years my only "devotions" was reading through the Psalms ... especially during some dark, dark years of depression. The Psalms have been a real source of refreshment for my soul. In those years of reading and writing about the reading I can't say how many times I have written about the Psalm's concept of "Lovingkindness." But, I do so today having been rescued by God's loving kindnesses so many times that I can really understand, appreciate, echo and proclaim with King David what he again says in Psalm 63:3, "Your lovingkindness is better than life, my lips will praise you." The fact that God loves me despite my multiple and gross sin is simply amazing to me. How can I not praise Him. I praise Him for loving me in my ugliness. How does God look down and see the wickedness of my heart and actions and not want to simply destroy me? How is it that He sees my every dark room act and not want to level me? How is it that He knows my every evil thought, lust, desire and motive and not want to take me out? He love me!!! I will praise Him for His Lovingkindness.
