We all have a favorite salty snack food - that go-to fave when the hunger strikes. What do you crave?
I was praying for the Church this morning a recurring thought for this year - that we would be a shining, light-filled city set on a hill for all to see and be drawn to out of the darkness. That we would be salty and flavorful and winsome, desirous and beneficial to our city. And in my reading today I came upon this Bible verse:
"I will rejoice in You and be in high spirits; I will sing praise to Your name, O Most High!" Psalm 9:2
Yes! What a fabulous, and fun way, to be a witness to San Diego - by being a people with rejoicing faith. We CHOOSE the attitude we will walk in today. Let's choose rejoicing. Let's purpose to lift our spirits up - let's "get high" in our spirit! That means we are going to have faith, we are going to trust Him, because as it says in verse 9:
"The Lord also will be a refuge and a high tower for the oppressed, a refuge and a stronghold in times of trouble (high cost, destitution and desperation)".
No matter what we are facing today, God is stronger! He is a safe place for us to reside in, to rejoice in. Let's get in there with God, rejoice IN Him, and be a shiny, salty, crave-alicious Church in San Diego.
Yummo!
