Blessed Morning Everyone, all of my life I've never known God to fail, He remains the same and Wonderful is His name!
Yes our God never changes, He remains the same, constant, sure, and solid. We can experience a lot of things but there is nothing greater than being in the presence of God. Surrounded by His glory, He comes to fellowship and commune with us. It's like being with your best friend, you feel secure, you enjoy the company. The presence of Holy Spirit makes us feel alive, invigorated, encouraged, and bold!
Having a conversation with Holy Spirit is insightful, He brings revelation from the Word of God. What a priviledge it is to spend time with the God of creation. We are indeed a blessed people, how many people on earth have this opportunity? Millions perhaps, but Holy Spirit makes us feel like we are the only person on the planet.
**Psalm 90** The Message (MSG)A Prayer of Moses, Man of God
90 1-2 God, it seems you’ve been our home forever;
long before the mountains were born,
Long before you brought earth itself to birth,
from “once upon a time” to “kingdom come”—you are God.
3-11 So don’t return us to mud, saying,
“Back to where you came from!”
Patience! You’ve got all the time in the world—whether
a thousand years or a day, it’s all the same to you.
Are we no more to you than a wispy dream,
no more than a blade of grass
That springs up gloriously with the rising sun
and is cut down without a second thought?
Your anger is far and away too much for us;
we’re at the end of our rope.
You keep track of all our sins; every misdeed
since we were children is entered in your books.
All we can remember is that frown on your face.
Is that all we’re ever going to get?
We live for seventy years or so
(with luck we might make it to eighty),
And what do we have to show for it? Trouble.
Toil and trouble and a marker in the graveyard.
Who can make sense of such rage,
such anger against the very ones who fear you?
12-17 Oh! Teach us to live well!
Teach us to live wisely and well!
Come back, God—how long do we have to wait?—
and treat your servants with kindness for a change.
Surprise us with love at daybreak;
then we’ll skip and dance all the day long.
Make up for the bad times with some good times;
we’ve seen enough evil to last a lifetime.
Let your servants see what you’re best at—
the ways you rule and bless your children.
And let the loveliness of our Lord, our God, rest on us,
confirming the work that we do.
Oh, yes. Affirm the work that we do!

Blessings,
