Word-Filled Wednesday




Psalm 71:15-24

My mouth will tell of your righteousness,

of your salvation all day long, though I know not its measure.

I will come and proclaim your mighty acts, O Sovereign Lord;

I will proclaim your righteousness, yours alone.

Since my youth, O God, you have taught me,

and to this day I declare your marvelous deeds.

Even when I am old and gray, do not forsake me, O God,

till I declare your power to the next generation,

your might to all who are to come.

Your righteousness reaches to the skies,

O God, you who have done great things.

Who, O God, is like you?

Though you have made me see troubles,

many and bitter, you will restore my life again;

from the depths of the earth you will again bring me up.

You will increase my honor and comfort me once again.

I will praise you with the harp for your faithfulness, O my God;

I will sing praise to you with the lyre,

O Holy One of Israel.

My lips will shout for joy when I sing praise to you—

I, whom you have redeemed.

My tongue will tell of your righteous acts all day long,

for those who wanted to harm me have been put to shame and confusion.

How great it is to know that God will restore us through our troubles. Thanks for sharing picture and verses. I needed the encouragement that HE is always with me. Joey got home last night from West Virginia Beach and left today going to New Orleans. I shouldn't complain....God is answering one of our prayers and that is Joey is working. But, oh how I miss him when he is gone. Especially, with all the drama at my house. I will look at the verse and picture to help me along the way. Great picture.

Beautiful. Who O God is like you? There's no one like Him and nothing like the grace he's extended to us. Blessings...
