Seeking Out the LORD
Psalm 77:2 In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord;
What hope we have access too in seeking out the Lord. Here, the psalmist sought the Lord in his troubles. That is a good time to do so for this life is abundant in troubles yet there is a greater, more uplifting time to seek out the Lord. When life is seemingly going well for this really reveals our character. Don't get me wrong, we are all one second from disaster but there are times in my great days, I tend to forget to seek Him out which is a downward spiral when the bad days come. Look, I want to seek God in every season of life but especially in the good days. For every good and perfect gift comes from God. I want to tell Him thank you. Oh and most importantly, I can only seek Him out because He first sought me out. He left the 99 to find this 1 lost sheep.

I love the Psalms! Can't really read them without a song of praise coming to mind!
The book of Psalm comfort my soul in times of trouble. Our sovereign God whispers in my ears that He is in control of all things even though the world around me is falling apart. My Creator is a compassionate refuge and faithful who reigns over all regardless of life’s circumstances. He got me in his hands, and He got the whole world in his hands (I love that song). Psalms serves as a manual for worship, calling me to serve God for His character, deeds, and holiness in all circumstances. I am reminded that He is faithful in my whole life.
