Our men’s Bible study last night at our church unpacked Psalm 131 as we studied our Senior Pastors’ Sermon Series on HOPE. Charles Spurgeon noted this psalm takes but a few moments to read but a lifetime to learn. Such a wealth of deep wisdom from the psalm for seeking a calm soul!

I Have Calmed and Quieted My Soul

A Song of Ascents. Of David.

131 O Lord, my heart is not lifted up;
my eyes are not raised too high;
I do not occupy myself with things
too great and too marvelous for m...  more
3 x takeaway 3 rd point I think becomes easier with age, experience and insight. By the time you mentally get there, you have been constantly reminded why it is important to protect yourself from "energy vampires." I used to believe that if I know someone and that person is in disarray, it was my responsibility to help and looking away from someone's problems would be unjust. As soon as you open the door to certain individuals though, they will consume you and in the end, don't help themselves...  more
My favorite way to start my morning devotions is to pray these verses from Psalm 51 written by King David upon acknowledging his sinful self and seeking to be more Christ-like. I also respect the fact that it took David a while to get to this point to gain the humility to pray accordingly acknowledging His need for conviction from the Holy Spirit. This is a process, and if we stumble or tarry then we are certainly in good company and shouldn’t be unnecessarily harsh on ourselves!

Thank you for sharing. I am alot more mindful when it comes to myself. I used to not give myself permission to even stop for a minute to think about myself. It wasn't on purpose, just the way we were taught, i believe. People used to drain my energy and uplifting spirit for themselves, never asking me how I was doing. Instead of answering the phone now, I rather sit with my thoughts thinking about jJesus and God and how it makes me feel content and peaceful having them in my life. Have a go...  more
All my morning devotions continuously referred back to GRACE, a personal favorite. I remember being told by a spiritual mentor decades ago the following reminder of grace.
Gods’ Riches At Christs’ Expense. Grace freely given abundantly for me with a commandment that I pay it forward and extend grace to others. Difficult at times especially on the roadways during our morning commute and especially challenging at times in the workplace. But the tenets of our Order demand we exhibit loving care a...  more
“This is the day that the Lord has made! We will rejoice and be glad in it!” Psalm 118:24

May we all receive grace, peace and mercy as we come together as a community of believers across this great nation and around the world praising and worshipping the Triune God and again celebrating the glory of Resurrection Sunday! Praise Jesus for His work on the Cross and the blood of the Lamb shed for all of US! Hallelujah! Let us not forget however we are called to vigilance in prayer as we stand guard...  more
Heaven is our ultimate permanent home, however here on our earthly journey we can daily expect to encounter darkness. This verse in particular reminds us to remain in The Word and seek the light of the world. Jesus Christ! The Way. The Truth. The Life. Amen dear brothers and sisters. Blessed and honored to have been accepted into The Order. I am pensively reflecting on my morning devotions, prayers and meditations, steeped richly in The Word and realizing the first order of battle to prepare our...  more
