Psalm 139:14 “I praise YOU, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are YOUR works; my soul knows it very well.”
Uniquely Designed!
Many aren’t singers for JESUS; many others play no instrument for praise.
Even more paint no pictures nor write words uplifting, still GOD says, “MY Child! You ARE gifted!”
What the saints do is serve ME in ways which are different.
No comparisons needed save just with these steps!
So serve without measure or yardstick with Zeal for…MY favor is for those who follow MY lead!
As HIServant in your service just as HE designed me,
Whitney
Devotional: Isaiah 43:10 “You are MY witnesses,” declares the LORD,
“and MY servant whom I have chosen, that you may know and believe ME and understand that I
am HE.
Before ME, no god was formed, nor shall there be any after ME.”
“Let us ever remember that GOD recognizes every expression of praise and of HIS people’s love. HE knows so well what HIS love and grace are to us that HE must expect us to praise HIM.” G.V. Wigram
“Praise is the rehearsal of our eternal song. By grace we learn to sing, and in glory we continue to sing.”
“What will some of you do when you get to heaven, if you go on grumbling all the way? Do not hope to get to heaven in that style.”
“But now begin to bless the name of the LORD.” — Charles Spurgeon
And so we do, amen?
As HIS witnessss, we are to lift up HIS NAME with great thanksgiving and songs of praise!
But I can’t sing. 🙂 Well anyway. I used to play an instrument but haven’t since my youth.
So if Zeal for CHRIST is compared only through those two lens, then what Hope would I have?
But GOD! HE sovereignly gives unique gifts to HIS children and no two are exactly alike.
So spiritually express yourself for JESUS without any fear of condemnation or comparison.
Give HIM everything without delay and don’t worry about being good enough in the eyes of another.
Rather wholly exercise your uniquely designed soul to its fullest — full of worship for our KING!
To HIM then let the volume of your voice, the full extent of your hearts’ gratitude…
…and your soul’s greatest zeal be given to JESUS today — and all days!
Amen and amen!
