Dear Doves,
We hear
from science news, researchers have discovered a new
super heavy metal.
At
this point no official name has been assigned to this
new metal. However, I felt the urge to
discover
what the Bible and Psalm 115 had to say about metals and
other man made objects.
Imagine
my satisfaction when I found this little jewel located
in God's Word. I take great
comfort
from these words below.
War
is about
break out in Syria. It will draw all nations into the
conflict. This would be a
great time to spend
more time with Jesus.
Agape,
Michael Curtiss
Psalm 115
The Impotence of Idols and the
Greatness of God
1 Not to us,
O Lord, not to us, but to your
name give glory,
for
the sake of your steadfast love and your
faithfulness.
2 Why should
the nations say,
“Where
is their God?”
3 Our
God is in the heavens;
he
does whatever he pleases.
4 Their
idols are metals of silver and gold,
the
work of human hands.
5 They
have mouths, but do not speak;
eyes,
but do not see.
6 They
have ears, but do not hear;
noses,
but do not smell.
7 They
have hands, but do not feel;
feet,
but do not walk;
they
make no sound in their throats.
8 Those
who make them are like them;
so
are all who trust in them.
9 O
Israel, trust in the Lord!
He
is their help and their shield.
10 O house of
Aaron, trust in the Lord!
He
is their help and their shield.
11 You who fear
the Lord, trust in the Lord!
He
is their help and their shield.
12 The Lord has been mindful of us; he will
bless us;
he
will bless the house of Israel;
he
will bless the house of Aaron;
13 he will
bless those who fear the Lord,
both
small and great.
14 May
the Lord give you increase,
both
you and your children.
15 May you be
blessed by the Lord,
who
made heaven and earth.
16 The
heavens are the Lord’s
heavens,
but
the earth he has given to human beings.
17 The dead do
not praise the Lord,
nor
do any that go down into silence.
18 But we will
bless the Lord
from
this time on and forevermore.
Praise the Lord!
