Today Someone heard the Lord say,
"Enjoy the moments!"
"What moments, Lord?" She asks.
"Times spent with Me, my dear child.
Once I've washed away your sin
your time can be spent joyously with Me.
Seize the moment!"
Psalm 53
1 The fool says in his heart,
"There is no God."
They are corrupt, and their ways are vile;
there is no one who does good.
2 God looks down from heaven
on the sons of men
to see if there are any who understand,
any who seek God.
3 Everyone has turned away,
they have together become corrupt;
there is no one who does good,
not even one.
4 Will the evildoers never learn—
those who devour my people as men eat bread
and who do not call on God?
5 There they were, overwhelmed with dread,
where there was nothing to dread.
God scattered the bones of those who attacked you;
you put them to shame, for God despised them.
6 Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion!
When God restores the fortunes of his people,
let Jacob rejoice and Israel be glad!
Enjoy The Moments
Do not dwell on your sinful past,
The Lord has had mercy on you;
Things forgiven should not last,
So rejoice now in all that you do.
Look at your life, in God's light,
Clothe your cares with thanksgiving;
Remember, to Him you are a delight,
With Him, each day is worth living.
Let God's Spirit straighten out your life,
Filling it with colour & new enhancements;
Trust Him to see you through pain & strife,
And bless you with enjoyable moments.
Resist the enemy, those who make you fall,
God's Word is your effective weapon;
Wait patiently, listen for His call,
The Lord is the only One to rely on.
All your victories come from above,
Bringing new life and salvation;
Feel your Heavenly Father's love,
Praise Him with joy and jubilation.
And enjoy the moments!
Amen.
