Blessed be the Lord, who daily bears our burden, the God who is our salvation. Selah.
Of the "seven" wonders of our God, the God "who daily bears our burden" is truly one of them. This never ceases to amaze me. The language of God toward His people, both in word and in deed, is always one of intense and intimate love and attention. Who in the world merits such affection? Not one of us, but we have it anyway. It comes from the unfathomable heart of a God who has so much to give. We have yet to plumb the depths of this heart, and we never will, but with so much available we ought to be continually mining such possibilities. There is no excuse for anemic or timid Christianity. Not with a God like this. Our lives should be bursting out in joy and delight from the the embrace of God, for all to see that we derive our gusto for life from the God who is our life!
