Overwhelmed

Psalm 103 "Bless the Lord, Oh my Soul, and all that is within me, Bless His holy name!"

Some days I am so overwhelmed with the peace of Christ that it is difficult to do the daily routine. I suppose this is a good thing because should I experience this abounding presence of the Holy Spirit in such amazing peace, I would not get much accomplished! But, since I presently have it, I am going to soak it up. "Be still and know that I AM God" (Psalm 46) has taken on a new understanding this morning. My inner being knows no ear, it is rejoicing to the point of shouting, Thank YOU, Thank YOU, Thank YOU, my God, my Jesus, my Savior. Is this the sense, the feeling, the exhortation that King David felt when he scribed Psalm 103? Was he experiencing what I am experiencing? Is it possible we are connecting soul to soul? Yes, I believe it is because there is no better way to describe it, but to say, "Bless the LORD, Oh, my soul; and all that is within me, bless His holy name." (Philippians 4:4, "Rejoice always.")

From "Prayers for Seed-Faith Living" by Oral Roberts, "YOU are LORD."
"Master, I rejoice in the knowledge that there is nothing too hard for YOU . . . there is no part of my life which is beyond YOUR love and concern. For I face all kinds of needs: food, clothing, shelter, a car. All t his takes money. But how glorious it is Lord, that YOU know this. YOU are LORD-not just of my soul, but of my entire life! And YOUR supply includes every possible need. I thank YOU for this glorious assurance. Amen."

Love,
Chappy
