My heart is overwhelmed at the awesomeness of God and I believe that I truly now can share in the joy and wonder of Hannah as she prayed in I Samuel 2:1-10
And Hannah prayed and said, My heart exults in the Lord; my strength is exalted in the Lord. My mouth derides my enemies, because I rejoice in your salvation.
There is none holy like the Lord; there is none besides you;there is no rock like our God.
Talk no more so very proudly, let not arrogance come from your mouth;for the Lord is a God of knowledge and by Him actions are weighed.
The bows of the mighty are broken, but the feeble bind on strength.
those who were full have hired themselves out for bread, but those who were hungry have ceased to hunger. The barren has borne seven, but she who has many children is forlorn.
The Lord kills and brings to life; He brings down the Sheol and raises up.
The Lord make poor and makes rich; he brings low and he exalts.
He raises up the poor from the dust; he lifts the needy from the ashe heap to make them sit with princes and inherit a seat of honor. For the pillars of the earth are the Lord's and on them he has set the world.
He will guard the feet of his faithful ones, but the wicked will be cut off in darkness, for not by might shall a man prevail.
The adversaries of the Lord shall be broken to pieces; against them he will thunder in heaven.The Lord will judge to the ends of the earth; he will give strength to his king and exalt the power of his anointed.
I have and am seeing the Glory of the Lord at work. This past year He has taken us through the dark valleys and to the sun filled meadows. He is God and we are not. False accusations and trials have besieged us , yet God is still God and He chooses when and how He will be exalted. I have seen my son turn to the Lord and his heart soften, I have become more submissive to the will of the Lord and softer myself. He has brought us closer to each other and closer to Him.He has been steady and consistent. I have seen unbelievable obstacles and I am seeing God's hand on them all. the best I could dare hope for is not even close to the best God is providing. He is shining the light of truth in the darkness of lies and deception as only He can. I have seen the power of prayer, break down high strong walls. I am seeing hard hearts soften. I am in awe of the Awesomeness of the Lord. My words are not sufficient so I must repeat and rely on the words of Hannah and David in
Psalm 113
Praise the Lord! Praise , O servants of the Lord, Praise the name of the Lord!
Blessed is the name of the Lord from this time forevermore!
From the rising of the sun to its setting. The name of the Lord is to be praised!
The Lord is high above all nations and his glory is in the heavens!
Who is like the Lord our God, who is seated on high,
who looks far down on the heavens and the earth?
He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the ash heap.
to make them sit with princes, and the prices of his people.
He gives the barren woman a home, making her the joyous mother of children.
PRAISE the LORD!
All I can say is that the Lord is still at work, the trial is not over yet, but I know that is at hand in God's perfect time. Please continue to pray and to praise Him.
Humbly,
