The Earth will bring forth its Praise

In the Psalms many of David's songs began in distress and concluded in victory. He journeyed from where he was to the throne, to the temple.

Israel sang his psalms as they journey from their homeland every year to the temple where they brought sacrific and were released from their sins for one more year. There is a progression in the psalms.

The following devotions are from Betty Slade's poetry books, "Within the Veil" and the second volumn "In His Presence".

A Pilgrim

Just a pilgrim passing through
The bounds of mere man
The rules of mere doctrine
Time given to mere earth.

This pilgrim has travelled
through time and space
to the heavenly city of faith.
The reality of life with God.

Operating ouside of time
As we submit to His purpose and plan
He passes talent
knowledge
and strength
To do exceedingly abundant of what
He asks or thinks,
according to the power
that works in tis mere pilgrim.

Justified by Faith



Justified by Faith

Awakened by a touch of His hand, a sense of
peace and joy -
My soul is lifted to the unknown - happy
that I have peace with my Maker.
He has removed the veil from my face,
I am learning to know His as He is.

Overwhelming love - no one can know unless
surrendered to the One above.
Opening heart, receiving Jesus as
Lord.

The peace that passes all understanding,
must be felt in the Spirit, seen with a
spiritual eye.
Knowing and trusting God's love.

"Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God. Romans 5:1

The Journey~~~ Walk the Talk

It is that moment we surrender, we let go of all our anxieties, fears, doubt and independence and we say to  our Lord, "Open my heart and cause me to know you" He waits for us, he waits until we run out of questions and answers, He waits until we finally say, "We can't do it without you." In that moment, peace sweeps over our hearts and we know we have been justified.,
