"What Shall I Render to the Lord?"

What shall I render to the Lord for all His benefits toward me? [How can I repay Him for all His bountiful dealings?] — Psalm 116:12 (AMP) The LORD has dealt so bountifully with us! How could we ever repay Him? What can we give to the LORD? OUR HEARTS. When we give Him our hearts, everything else naturally follows. Let us keep our hearts open to God and let Him perform the delicate surgery of circumcision. Allow Him to cut out of your heart anything and everything that takes you away from Him. As I turn another year older today, all I want is to grow deeper & deeper in love with Him, to get to know Him more and to become more and more like Him. This world has nothing greater to offer. Set your affections on the LORD!

Reap in Joy!

Those who sow in tears shall reap in joy. He who continually goes forth weeping, bearing seed for sowing, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.  — Psalm 126:5-6 (NKJV) To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven: a time to weep, and a time to laugh; A time to mourn, and a time to dance; (Ecclesiastes 3:1, 4). During times of hardship, we may sacrifice, sweat, and tears, but if we persevere through the pain, we shall reap a bountiful harvest with shouts of joy!
