This was inspired by my best friend and the amazing music she has been writing.There's one particular line one of her songs I can't get out of my head..."Let my meditation be pleasing to you".
Every thought we have is a stitch that becomes the fabric of our lives. Yesterday as I was meditating on how sorry I was for myself as I cleaned up my sick children's vomit and dia...ahem...the other thing, this line kept going through my mind. As I meditated on how crappy it was that I can never sleep in on a Saturday and do what I want to do because I have too many responsibilities, this line kept going through my head. As I sorrowed over the dirty dishes and agonized over all the things I had to do and sacrifices I had to make despite the fact that I was sick with strep throat and so tired from being up with the kids every night for a week, this line kept going through my head.
I failed miserably yesterday. But today in church guess what scripture verse came up during the sermon?
Psalm 19:14
Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart Be acceptable in Your sight, O LORD, my rock and my Redeemer.
I will learn yet.
Yikes...Your post really convicted me!
