God
Something to think about.
Thou art Jehovah, even thou
alone; thou hast made heaven, the heaven of heavens, with all their
host, the earth and all things that are thereon, the seas and all that
is in them, and thou preservest them all; and the host of heaven
worshippeth thee. Neh 9:6 (ASV)
This is who we worship.

My Favorite Verse
“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” Gen 1:1
Thus
begins the explanation of our existence. I could not think of a better
beginning. In that statement our existence is explained. First it says
by whom: God. Then what was done: creation. Then when it was done: In
the beginning. I particularly like the first four words of this verse.
They explain so much. I have always wanted to know when and where our
existence began and it began with these four simple words. It is a
perfect beginning. It answers a question that humanity has been asking
since it lost the answer. These four words answer the question with such
brilliant simplicity we all but miss it.
Before
anything was, before any matter of any kind existed, before nothing was
identified, before the emptiness of space, before time itself, God
stands in the beginning. The genius of the verse is that it starts with
“In the beginning” because nothing existed before the beginning. How
else would you start the story? Nothing existed before the
creation and yet standing in what would become the doorway of existence
is God. God in all his power and majesty stands alone ready to bring
forth life. In that marvelous moment of creation God brings everything
we need to exist into existence. He is responsible for everything. This
is the perfect place to start because everything has a beginning except
for God who has no beginning or end. As mind boggling as the concept of
an eternal being is it is the only explanation for a being that could
create us.

Cutting The Chains
Something to think about.
"If we confess
our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins, and to
cleanse us from all unrighteousness." 1 Jn 1:9 (ASV)
Forgiven and free.

The Weight Of The World
Something to think about.
"Cast thy burden upon Jehovah, and he will sustain thee: He will never suffer the righteous to be moved." Ps 55:22 (ASV)
"Humble
yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt
you in due time; 7 casting all your anxiety upon him, because he careth
for you." 1 Peter 5:6-7 (ASV)
If you let him he will sustain you and give you peace.

Something to think about.
So everyone who acknowledges me before men, I also will acknowledge before my Father who is in heaven, 33 but whoever denies me before men, I also will deny before my Father who is in heaven. Mt 10:31-32 (NIV)
Be known or be unknown your choice.

Inheritance
Something to think about.
The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, 17 and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, provided we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified with him. Rom 8: 16 - 17 (ASV)
To share in the inheritance of God what more could you possibly want?
