Verse A Day

Monday, November 1, 2010

Isaiah 14:
24 The LORD Almighty has sworn,
   “Surely, as I have planned, so it will be,
   and as I have purposed, so it will happen." 

Psalm 139:
5 You hem me in behind and before,
   and you lay your hand upon me.
6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,
   too lofty for me to attain.
3 For you created my inmost being;
   you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
   your works are wonderful,
   I know that full well.
15 My frame was not hidden from you
   when I was made in the secret place,
   when I was woven together in the depths of the earth.
16 Your eyes saw my unformed body;
   all the days ordained for me were written in your book
   before one of them came to be. 

23 Search me, God, and know my heart;
   test me and know my anxious thoughts.
24 See if there is any offensive way in me,
   and lead me in the way everlasting.

Psalm 40:
17 But as for me, I am poor and needy;
   may the Lord think of me.
You are my help and my deliverer;
   you are my God, do not delay.

I am reminding myself of these verses for Peter and that the Lord made him just as He saw fit.   It is easy to feel that things are inconvenient for me but I know that the Lord has purposes in it for me too.  So the last 2 sets of verses are for me... well, both of us.
