Oct 5, 2010. Psalm 89:38-52

This psalm is actually from an unknown psalmist.
but people believe that he was around during fall of Israel. he first talks about how God is rejecting them in a bad time, yet at the end he glorify God by saying that he is with us.
As Christians one of the most important things we need to do is to glorify God in the dark time. just like the song blessed be your name, we need to just jump for joy and reach out to God during our bad time as we have to do the same during our good times. God has all the rights to take things away from us.
Sometimes we misinterpret delayed prayer to rejected prayer. sometimes we just have to be more patient and just love our God.

Oct 4. 2010, Psalm 89:19-37

in this quiet time it really talks about how much God cares for us. and how important it is to be with him. what he will do for us and how he will love us forever just like He loves king David. but the second part (v.30-37) is what gets me the most. it says that the sins won't go unpunished. he punishes because he loves us. he will never stop loving us but he corrects us because he loves us so much.
sometimes we complain to God about why we suffer, but we always sins and when we get punished we shouldn't beable to say anything. we deserve every little things that happen to us that's bad. God still loves us and in the big picture we will see that God gives us victory.
