I read and I feel afraid. Not in a bad sense. I feel that I do not want to know the wrath of God. My heart understands our God Creator's capabilities and fears them.
Verse 4 says, "He who sits in the heavens laughs...", He laughs at these people's ideas of control, their wrong perception of their own abilities. He has ultimate control. So, in these verses I see a protector, a mighty hand that saves and conquers. God brings mighty floods. He is the same Lord that allowed for David to conquer Goliath.
He protects those that love Him and the ones that follow His law. I want to follow that Law, because I do not want to end up like Goliath.
I also see this magnificent provider. In verse 7, the Lord says, "You are my Son; today I have begotten you", we belong to Him! We are His and He thinks of us daily! What a blessing to be on the mind of the being that created eternity, the universe, and the life that we are currently living. He then says, "Ask of me and I will make the nations your heritage and the ends of the earth your possession."
He tells us just to ask! And according to His will it will happen. This is incredible. A constant truth that we must be reminded of. It is unbelievable. He wants to know our hearts, to have His creation, and to fully trust in His provision.
In a time of preparation both for college and adulthood it is words like these that give me hope. I get all excited to know God is going before me and making my way. He truths such as these, are written before me giving me steadfast faith and an assured heart.
God has a perfect plan for me. I have only to be quiet now and wait.
