Scripture lesson: Psalm 111 Studying God's works

Time to reflect: The 3^rd verse struck me on this reading (how many times have I read them Psalm, but this particular time this phrase jumps out at me). If we delight in God's works, and are willing to see God's hand in things, we can see God's work everywhere. And as we study God's works, we delight in God's works more and more.

Moving Throughout the day: Through the day, “study God's works” -- everything from the structure of the universe to the incredible creature we call “humans” to the makeup of sub-atomic particles and everything in between. Then give God praise for this amazing creation.

 Scripture:

Find rest, O my soul, in God alone;
       my hope comes from him.

 He alone is my rock and my salvation;
       he is my fortress, I will not be shaken.

My salvation and my honor depend on God ;
       he is my mighty rock, my refuge.

  Trust in him at all times, O people;
       pour out your hearts to him,
       for God is our refuge.
       Selah

  Lowborn men are but a breath,
       the highborn are but a lie;
       if weighed on a balance, they are nothing;
       together they are only a breath.

  Do not trust in extortion
       or take pride in stolen goods;
       though your riches increase,
       do not set your heart on them.

  One thing God has spoken,
       two things have I heard:
       that you, O God, are strong,

  and that you, O Lord, are loving.
       Surely you will reward each person
       according to what he has done.
