I read Psalm 18 this morning and when I got to verse 29 ,"with my God I can scale a wall." , my reading became a trip down memory lane… taking me back to a moment over a decade ago. Working with a friend, leading her teams through a redesign of their work, we were planning the devotion to start the session and were suddenly trying to find that verse. Today, we have countless and fast resources to do that. In the year 2000, we couldn't find it in the concordance in our portable Bibles. We looked and looked, racked our brains, asked the team… honestly don't remember if we ever found it that day… and yet, every time I read that verse, I think of that moment and my friend.
In Philippians 1:3, Paul shares, "I thank my God every time I remember you." Whenever I read that verse, I am reminded of my faithful friend who led me to Christ.
Sometimes, the words of songs appear in Scripture, and I can hear the music… sometimes, it's a passage that God brought to me in an hour of need or celebration...isn't it cool how God's Word is here, for us, in real time for all time?
Let's reflect this week on those Scriptural threads God has woven through our lives, all the moments and people He's connected us to through His Word… and let's keep weaving!
Psalm 29:4 The voice of the Lord is powerful; the voice of the Lord is majestic.
