Stay In Faith Serving With Joy and Gladness In Our Heart!

In Psalm 100 God lays out how we are to come before Him saying; " Serve the Lord with gladness! Come before His presence with singing". As we all can see God doesn't say if you can sing come to me singing, He said to sing as you come to Me and even regardless of how your body or emotionally you feel come happy, joyful, with out complaints just in pure thanksgiving and content to be where we are as Christians who read the bible we should know that He knows our needs, our pain, and He constantly affirms to us how much He loves us and care for our needs and wants.

He also tell us in Psalm 100:3 ; "know ( perceive,recognize,and understand with approval ) that the Lord is God! It is He who made us and not we ourselves ( and we are His )! We are His people and the sheep of His pasture. " We are His for His pleasure,and as long as we live thinking that we can solve all our problems or relying on other humans we are always going to fail but if we do what God describe in Psalm 100:4 as it reads; "Enter His gates with thanksgiving and thank offerings and into His courts with praise! Be thankful and say to Him, bless and affectionately praising His name". It simply says that as we walk into church His house, His court, enter smiling, praising, thankful to be there and bringing more than just ourselves,bringing offerings with affection and love in our hearts as we give praises to His Holy name, our God Jehovah. And Psalm 100:5 finishes it off by saying; " For the Lord is good, His mercy and loving-kindness are everlasting, His faithfulness and truth endures to all generations". How great of a promise as He is mighty but yet full of mercy and loving-kindness, but above all He doesn't stop His blessings on us, He continues that through generations and who can ask for more when we can be sure that the result of our faithfully living will not only bless us but our kids and their kids , kids.

So to remind us how much God loves us and how He has our every turn planned for the best for us but even more for those we were made to help find their own way, this verse really spoke to my heart and I'll leave you my friends to decapitate every word in it and find the truth that hides behind them for those who desperately seek and want; " For we are God's ( own ) handiwork ( His workmanship ), recreated in Christ Jesus, (born anew ). that we may do those good works which God predestined ( planned beforehand ) for us ( taking paths which He prepared ahead of time ), that we should walk in them ( living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us to live ), Ephesians 2:10.

I'm thankful for all the people God has brought to my life, for my family, my two amazing sons Damian and Joshua, and all the trials I been facing so that I can become the man I am today, so I go before You my Father, my Creator, my Everlasting source of life in You I abide with my all singing You praises and thanksgiving in my beloved and adored Savior, Jesus Christ.
