This week's Psalm (34:1-8) reminds me that God is awesome. It begins with the words "his praise shall be continually in my mouth." and ends with "O taste and see that the Lord is good". Everything between those words just make me happy that I have a God who has helped me get through those more difficult times in my life as well as share in the most joyous times in my life, and everything in between.
The Psalm reminds about more than the awesomeness of God, however. It also requests that we "magnify" the Lord with the Psalmist, exalting God's name together. That is such a great reminder, too. If other things make me happy and I tell everyone about it - a special day with my wife, a deep conversation with a friend, a simple dinner with my parents - why wouldn't I want to tell everyone about how the ongoing realization of God's unconditional love and acceptance makes me live every day of my life with nothing but joyful peace.
So, join with me today, and each day forward, in letting everyone know how great your God has been in your life. As today's Psalm reminds us, "look to God and be radiant." Let God's love shine through you!
