Shoved Out
by an Old Disciple
David tells us of the wicked, “God is not in all his thoughts.”~ Psa. 10:4
It does not say that He is not in some of them, but in all of them. As Christians, we need to be careful not to follow the example of the ungodly. There should not be a thought that He cannot share in. But sad to say, many times I have shut Him out of the chamber of my imagery, simply because I harbored thoughts that I knew He would not approve, or be a part of. Embarrassing as it is to say, I chose the thought over my blessed God.
How we need to rise above the great mass of men and women who drift through life without ever taking God into their thoughts. Darling David said, “My meditation [thoughts] of Him shall be sweet.” And why not, the shepherd boy knew that God thought upon him and his woeful condition constantly, “…thy thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto thee…But I am poor and needy; yet the Lord thinketh upon me.”Psl. 40:5,17). It’s awesome to think that we, His children, are in His every thought. Should we then shove Him out of ours?
This is right on point especially during this electronic age. Thank you.
Just great, Dad. So true. Thank you.
