DAILY READINGS: 1 Samuel 9:15 to 10:27; Isaiah 50 to 51:8; 2 Cor. 11
Because thy lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee. Psalms 63:3
How can we sinful humans bless God? From this verse it seems that when we pray to God, lifting our hands, lifting our needs, lifting our families in prayer to Him, this is blessing Him. If the “greatest service we can do to God is to trust Him” then leaning hard on Him today, trusting Him hourly, counting on Him alone to satisfy our needs—this is blessing the Lord. How joyfully then can we lift our voices with the Psalmist to sing. —M. MacMullen
Lord, upon our blindness, Thy pure radiance pour;
For Thy lovingkindness we would love Thee more;
And when clouds are drifting dark across the sky,
Then, the veil uplifting, Father, be Thou nigh.—William W. How
