Psalms Chapter 91 1 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
I, too, have been there – in the secret place of the Most High God.
Like Moses, I have been on the mountain top, hesitant to come down and take up the mundane duties of earthly living.
Like Job, I was in the ash heap, but I came out saying, “I shut my mouth. I knew nothing before, but now I’ve seen Him! I know Him!”
Like David, I’ve washed the altar with my tears and joyed in sins forgiven.
Like Isaiah, I’ve seen Him high and lifted up. (Here I am, peeking over the earth’s rim, back here, behind the cherubim and seraphim. You are awesome, Lord. I love you.)
Like John I have leaned on His breast and dwelt there until His breath became my breath.
Like Mary, I have sat at His feet, and
like Martha, I have served Him in the kitchen.
I’ve been to places too wonderful to tell, beginning when, like the centurion, I stood at the cross and knew that, truly, there hung the Son of God.

I’m pretty sure I have used this on blog before, but tonight (Sunday) it is awesome in my soul – the magnificence of an Almighty God who cares for me, whom He loves even more than he loves the angels, cherubim, seraphim, or any other of his created wonders. That is also how much He loves you.
Good realization that he loves us more than “he loves the angels, cherubim, seraphim, or any other of his created wonders”.
Mind boggling how much He loves, but I guess it is wrapped up in “God is Love.”
Our Father God is the perfect example of fatherly love. His mercy and love endure forever.
Nice tie in to Father’s Day.
Thank you.

Aww! You have a very sweet spirit too Oneta! Have a wonderful day! ❤
Thank you. Beautiful memories. A-men!
He has been wonderful every decade of my life.
I love mentally putting myself in the place of the people in the Bible. (I especially identify with the two sisters, as my inner Mary and Martha collide. 😉 ) Each one had a different perspective, where we can gain insight.
I understand what you mean by “colliding” because the one sister within can be hard on the other sister within. But we must not let Mary heap guilt on Martha; neither can we let Martha give Mary a guilt trip. Nothing surpasses time at Jesus’ feet, but he is not leaving us on earth to spend all our time at his feet. He gives us all earthly duties to perform.
Exactly! That’s why no matter what we are doing, Satan will try to use it to condemn us. I’m not buying it any more. 😏
He is a sneaky louse! Mixing a bit of truth with a lot of deceit is his speciality.
