Psalm 16
No doubt...God created all things and He is in all things.
I say to the Lord, “You are my Lord; apart from you I have no good thing.” v2
No doubt...God created all things and He is in all things.
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Genesis 1:1
For in him all things
were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible,
whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been
created through him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. And
he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the
firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the
supremacy. Colossians 1:16-18
Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. James 1:17

I must daily express my gratitude for the many blessings He has provided and understand that apart from God I am nothing.
My Prayer: Lord Jesus, what an incredible God You are - I AM thankful for all the ways that You bless me and I know that apart from You I have no good thing...yet I continue to sin. I am full of pride, arrogance, selfishness, etc. Please forgive me Jesus and help me overcome such sin. Help me turn towards You. Help me love You with all of my heart, soul, mind and strength. Help me love others as You do. Help me grow in my faith. Give me strength. Give Lisa strength. Please heal her of her cancer and the side effects from chemo and radiation. Help me lead and serve Lisa, Zach and Dustin, and serve You. Help me understand, be obedient to, and apply Your message for me today and every day.
