it is indeed such a beautiful realisation god that entrusted us with a beautiful world and i guess we messed up. Anyways, he has sent us jesus for our rescue and i pray you,myself and the whole world that we and our deeds be pleasing in his eyes.

We should praise god for his mighty works in our lives and for protecting us. Above all he has given us salvation in our lives for free. He has revealed his plans which he has for us. He had made promises to us and he abides by it. He never leaves our side. It is important because he is going to come again and judge us and we in turn have to be pure and holy for him. He will judge us with righteousness and we have to be prepared for it. It is very exuberant in my congregation. Personally, it is not very exuberant coz i dont have the freedom.

It is commanded because it is our duty to worship him because he is the creator of this universe and he has made us. we have to obey him and worship his glory. He is the only god and there should be no other reason why we should stop praising him. God has seen how man has complained against him and doubted his magnificance. He doesn;t want it to happen again and deprive his creations of anyhting. So he mentions it again and again not to ignore his voice when he speaks to you. It gels perfectly because if we believe in god then there is no question of doubt and we in turn should praise him for his goodness.

This psalms teaches us that we should always praise our god almighty because he is a god who is worthy to be praised. He is the only god that exists and we should worship and just praise him. Praise should occur in the heavens where our lord stays. Praise should be conducted with trumpet, harp, lyre, tambourine, string instruments, flute, cymbals and of course with our dancing. Every living thing that breathes should praise god . It makes me praise god more and more. i just feel like letting him know how great he is.

The unity between our bretheran is overwelmimg. I have often prayed for harmony among everybody in this world, so i always wonder how it would be if we all come together in the name of lord. In today's world it does seem like next to impossible to live in unity with so much hatred and evil around us. But in that if we live a righteous life and love one another it would be visible to others. God wants us to love one another and that is what he tells us again and again to do through his word. So we should keep this in mind and do what he tells us to do bacause through that we can live in harmony and in unity. We also have to be pure in our intentions as we love one another and dont expect anything in return. Our love has to be pure like christ's love for us. I guess if we love one another there would be no enimosity amongst us and in turn we will turn better human beings and can lead a godly life easily.

This psalms is a great example to bring up our children:- a) We can teach our children not to lie Not to say bad things about their neighbours(freinds) c) Not to do thing that are wrong and may upset God and in turn their parents. d) Above all to let them know that God knows what goes on in their mind and heart and that he can read their thoughts. It covers:- One should walk in his footsteps- trying to be clean in his thoughts and in his deeds. To always speak the truth. He should not speak ill about his friends and neighbours nor he should do them any harm.He should hate the evil force but not those who love god. If he has promised someone then he should abide by it. He should use his money kindly and should not take bribe.

We need to reminded of this all the time because Satan will try his tricks and we have to be always be alert of his doing and knowing that if we follow our lords words and his ways we will eventually succeed and will be prosperous. Emotionally, I like verse 3 "He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers." where God says that he will bless those who abide by him and lives by the word of God.

God has created us and we are his creation. So God loves us very much, for which he gave his only son to redeem us. When you have faith in beleiving that he was sent for us that itself should tell you how much he loves us, how special we are in his eyes. It makes me realise that I am very special in his eyes. Not only me but each and every person is special for him.

The Psalmist is thirsting for God. His soul is dry and parched. He yearns for god. He is crying a lot too. He his questioned by others as where his god is. He is talking to himself and assuring himself and praising God. He is happy with the fact that God is there with him day and night. Yes, I have felt that way. I realise that even when I am in pain, God is there, he loves me and will never forsake me. That I know for sure. I thank him for that all the time.

The psalmist is in awe of God as he has created him and nothing is hidden from him. He knows his each and every rise and downfall, even his thoughts are known to him from far. God has laid his hand upon him and he cannot fathom this knowledge and it is beyond his power to understand it. The psalmist also adds that wherever he goes the lord is with him. It is indeed a marvellous feeling to know that our god is there with us at every moment-no matter where we go! It is something to dwell upon. In verse 23-24 he says to check his heart out, his thoughts for any wicked deal and to lead him to everlasting.

It means that he wants to be near to god always and to be in his presence all the times. He wants to gaze upon his beauty. To seek his face means to have a one to one talk or a conversation with god and allow nobody to come in between him and god. To have a personal time with god. David provides hope by saying that wait upon him, be patient and it will be rewarded. Have courage and he will strength your heart.

The common thread is that in verse 1-6 he speaks without words to us and in verse 7-9 he speaks to us through the written word. It is indeed beautiful how it shifts from unsaid to the said. the word of god revives his soul, even a simple man becomes wise through his word and it gives him joy. I have felt it so many times. David asks that the words that come from his mouth be pleasing to god and his meditation also pleases him.He asks god to give him strength.

It teaches us that our god is the creator of this universe and that he loves us very much that he is bothered about us. he wants us to praise him because he is worthy to be praised. we are mere mortals but still he loves us so much. he is the creator of this whole universe and we are his creations. nobody is superior to anybody and that we all are equal in his eyes. he made christ go through a lot for our sake and he has been rewared with such glory for it- though he was the only son! We as his creation have to take care of everybody and he has given us so much authority. We should be always be in praise of him and in awe of him. We should not do anything that makes him unhappy or put him to shame. Praise to you god!
