Secondly - We just returned from a marvelous and uplifting week in Tennessee. The theme of this "retreat" was "Higher Ground." Basically, it was a week of a bunch of youngish christians praising God, working to get to the core of their walk with God to grow closer to him and encouraging each other to be better each day. This was such a wonderful opportunity. I'm working to make much application from the good lessons that were learned and am very much looking forward to being with everyone next year - or being with them in heaven if God decides that time comes first!
Third - I was introduced to a great translation this week - the English Standard Version (ESV). There is a lot to this, and that website has some great features. I think I'm going to look at getting a copy of this for reading if nothing else.
Fourth - I don't know if I mentioned this already or not, but we're going to have another baby sometime in late November/early December. That is a wonderful blessing from God!
Finally - Read, understand and use this passage to give God more glory each day!
Psalm 29
1 Ascribe to the Lord, O heavenly beings,
ascribe to the Lord glory and strength.
2 Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name;
worship the Lord in the splendor of holiness.3 The voice of the Lord is over the waters;
the God of glory thunders,
the Lord, over many waters.
4 The voice of the Lord is powerful;
the voice of the Lord is full of majesty.5 The voice of the Lord breaks the cedars;
the Lord breaks the cedars of Lebanon.
6 He makes Lebanon to skip like a calf,
and Sirion like a young wild ox.7 The voice of the Lord flashes forth flames of fire.
8 The voice of the Lord shakes the wilderness;
the Lord shakes the wilderness of Kadesh.9 The voice of the Lord makes the deer give birth
and strips the forests bare,
and in his temple all cry, “Glory!”10 The Lord sits enthroned over the flood;
the Lord sits enthroned as king forever.
11 May the Lord give strength to his people!
May the Lord bless his people with peace! (ESV)
