ASCRIBE TO THE LORD: WORSHIP IN SPLENDOR

Psalms 96:7 invites us to ascribe glory and strength to the Lord, recognizing His majesty and power. This act of worship is a posture of awe and reverence, acknowledging His worthiness. It also calls us to trust in His power, acknowledging that our true strength comes from Him.

This act of surrender, trusting in His grace, is essential in a world that often emphasizes self-sufficiency. Worship in splendor is a life of devotion, reflecting the glory and strength of the Lord in our actions, thoughts, and relationships. 

The call to "ascribe to the LORD" extends to every aspect of our lives, and we should carry the spirit of worship with us.

STRENGTH FOR THE WEARY SOUL

Psalms 73:26 offers a profound assurance that God is the strength of our hearts and our portion forever. It acknowledges our vulnerabilities and limitations, emphasizing that in times of exhaustion, divine strength surpasses our understanding. 

As we navigate life's challenges, we should anchor ourselves in the assurance that God is our eternal portion, providing solace in His enduring love and promise of unfailing support.
