Evening Meditation 4-3-17
God is our refuge and strength,
always ready to help in times of trouble.
2 So we will not fear when earthquakes come
and the mountains crumble into the sea.
3 Let the oceans roar and foam.
Let the mountains tremble as the waters surge! Interlude Psalm 46:1-3
Have you had a life quake or a mountain crumble? Tell me how God came to your aid.

Morning Direction From Scripture 4-3-17
Listen to me, O royal daughter; take to heart what I say.
Forget your people and your family far away.
11 For your royal husband delights in your beauty;
honor him, for he is your lord.
12 The princess of Tyre[c] will shower you with gifts.
The wealthy will beg your favor.
13 The bride, a princess, looks glorious
in her golden gown.
14 In her beautiful robes, she is led to the king,
accompanied by her bridesmaids.
15 What a joyful and enthusiastic procession
as they enter the king’s palace!
16 Your sons will become kings like their father.
You will make them rulers over many lands.
17 I will bring honor to your name in every generation.
Therefore, the nations will praise you forever and ever. Psalm 45:10-17
VERSES 12-17 METAPHORICALLY DESCRIBE THE CHURCH’S PROCESSION INTO GOD’S PRESENCE. TRY TO EXTEND YOUR IMAGINATION INTO THE REALITY OF THAT EVENT. WHAT WILL YOU HEAR?
