Sometimes 11-20-22

Good morning. Sometimes. Not always, not for sure, maybe not right now, but sometimes:

Sometimes tears are only memories that sneak out of our eyes and roll down our cheeks. 

Sometimes joy comes disguised as trouble, and it is only when we have faithful courage that we look close enough to see the truth. 

Sometimes love seems impossible, but that is when we need to remember: Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.” Matthew 19:26  Sometimes? Nope, this is always!

Sometimes the threats around us seem terrifying, but that is when we need to remember: “The Lord is my helper; I will not fear; what can man do to me?” Hebrews 13:6   Another “always”, praise God!

Sometimes I need to see a rainbow, and I remember that rainbows won’t come unless there is rain. 

Sometimes we need to let go of our plans in order to take hold of the blessing God is giving us. 

Sometimes we need to worship because we are hungry for God, and sometimes we need to worship because God is hungry for us. 

Sometimes it feels like worship is a great rehearsal for eternity. 

Sometimes I wish I could be filled with wonder like a little child, but whenever I seek God, I find that the wonder of Him is beautiful and amazing. 

Sometimes I think about worship as a fire, but it is a fire that builds and adds, never consumes. 

Sometimes I smile for my God who is so great that He can never be exaggerated. .

Sometimes I wonder about the language of music, for music speaks in ways that words cannot express and in ways that only the heart can translate.

Sometimes I remember that true worship is the pleasing of God, everything else is illegitimate. 
 
Sometimes I remember that to bring my best efforts of worship I need to empty myself, but the emptying of myself results in being wonderfully filled. .

Worship well today my friends. I hope that sometimes my musings may encourage a worthy thought.
