"here comes the sun...doo doo do do...and i said...it's alright"

"in the morning when i face the day, i will let every thought be of You, for You are good. You take all those who will come to You." -enter the worship circle

still dwelling on the fact that memorizing a passage can change your life. it can make the difference between staying in bed or getting up. it can influence how you spend your time. it's all about chewing on, and truly living on the Word, and not bread alone.

psalm 113:3 . . . from the rising of the sun to it's setting, the name of the Lord is to be praised.

that's a command. a command the Lord has imprinted on my heart. no, i'm sure it doesn't mean i have to wake up at 5:25 every morning...but it does mean my entire day, from the moment it begins, until the moment it ends, i shall be praising the Lord.

truth: there is nothing like His glory. it's above the heavens [psalm 113:4]. today i witnessed it, and the Lord hand-picked scripture to go along.

psalm 118:1, 14, 23-24, 27, 28-29 . . . [1]give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; His steadfast love endures forever. [14]the Lord is my strength and my song; He has become my salvation. [23-24]the Lord has done this, and it is marvelous in our eyes. this is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it. [27]the Lord is God, and He has made His light shine upon us. [28-29]You are my God, and i will give You thanks; You are my God, and i will exalt You. give thanks to the Lord for He is good; His love endures forever.

it IS marvelous in our eyes. what He has done. His glory. every day. every morning. "it's morning again."

Majesty, Your glory is shining
brighter than the moon and the stars
marveling, we honor and fear You
above all gods

glorious and mighty, You’re awesome In beauty
joyful songs we raise
glorious and mighty, You’re awesome in beauty
greatly to be praised

Majesty, You fashioned the heavens
Your decrees can never be changed
over all the plans of the nations
Your judgments reign

Majesty, we’ll sing with creation
when You come again in the clouds
every knee will bow down and worship
the one true God.

once again. yes, this is where my heart is at. once again. every day, every moment, being brought back to the truth that there is NOTHING more than the cross.

Jesus Christ, i think upon Your sacrifice
You became nothing, poured out to death
many times i've wondered at Your gift of life
and i'm in that place once again
i'm in that place once again

and once again i look upon the cross where You died
i'm humbled by Your mercy and i'm broken inside
once again i thank You
once again i pour out my life

now You are exalted to the highest place
King of the heavens, where one day i'll bow
but for now, i marvel at Your saving grace
and i'm full of praise once again
i'm full of praise once again

thank You for the cross

"marvel" was in every song the Lord brought to my heart today. how marvelous! (:

blessed be the name of the Lord, from this time forth and forevermore! [psalm 113:2]
