Psalm 16:11 Presence and Pleasures

 

I felt the "path" through the forest came through this photo as meaningful with the Bible verse, as well as the presence of God, the sense that God is there, and the pleasure in His creation.  At least I really did feel God's presence in that moment and I remember it, but I hope it comes through to the viewer too.

I begin to realize that God has taken me in a 180 degree again!  It is NOT about me!  It never is about me.  It is ALWAYS about Christ and Him crucified.  Every verse in the Bible is about Him.  I am such a self-centered sinner sometimes.  Sigh.

Our life has many "paths" that we take (yes, with His guidance), but this Bible verse says "path of life."  Singular. One path.  The path.  The one way.  To heaven.  He fills me with joy.  It is nothing I do.  He gives me eternal pleasures.  Not the earthly pleasures as I think selfishly.  His right hand is in heaven, not on earth.  The angels are in heaven full of joy over my faith.  Do you see it?  The verse is about Jesus, not me.

But then again, I am on this earth.  And I am bound to Christ while on this earth.  And I do travel about this earth as I take my journey until I pass from death to life when I begin another journey.  And what an adventure this earthly life is!  Let's go!  Let's go it together with Christ!
