For you save a humble people,
but the haughty eyes you bring down.
For it is you who light my lamp;
the LORD my God lightens my darkness.
For by you I can run against a troop,
and by my God I can leap over a wall.
This God—his way is perfect;
the word of the LORD proves true;
he is a shield for all those who take refuge in him.
For who is God, but the LORD?
And who is a rock, except our God?—

Jessica.H: Psalm 34 →
jessicahah:
I will bless the LORD at all times;
his praise shall continually be in my mouth.
My soul makes its boast in the LORD;
let the humble hear and be glad.
Oh, magnify the LORD with me,
and let us exalt his name together!
I sought the LORD, and he answered me
and delivered me…
Thank you for posting this much needed encouragement…the Word never fails to speak...

Sitting in the New Year (by Carolyn Mahaney from girltalk):
Will you wake up on January 1, 2012 and say to God: “I don’t need to read your Word or pray or listen to your voice today. I am competent on my own. I can keep my New Years’ resolutions all by myself, thank you very much.”?
Of course not! We would never dare say these frightfully arrogant words.
But if we neglect God’s Word...

look upward
Therefore , since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God....

GREAT IS THE LORD
If all I’ve done, at last should come to nothing. And all I love, like sand be washed away, Still I will sing, of Your unfailing glory. On bended knee, I’ll lift my voice and say. Great is the Lord, Great is Your name, Til my last breath, I will proclaim, Great is the Lord, Great is Your name, I give my life, to sing Your praise. - Starfield

PSALM 34:8-10
Oh, taste and see that the LORD is good! Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him! Oh, fear the LORD, you his saints, for those who fear him have no lack! The young lions suffer want and hunger; but those who seek the LORD lack no good thing.

I decided to put up the whole mix since I couldn’t pick just one! This one’s ideal for baking, studying, walking through autumn weather, contemplative moods, and basically anything and everything that has to do with fall. Enjoy!

Now Why This Fear...
I’ve been hearing this around a lot lately and like the lyrics a whole lot. It’s not the same without the music (live recording to be released within the month!) but the words still ring true and serve as a really great reminder during these long and weary weeks.
Now why this fear and unbelief Has not the Father put to grief His spotless Son for us And will the righteous Judge of men...
