Read Through the Bible in a Year 2018 Day 177: Your Way, O God, is Holy

Good afternoon, everyone!

Today I read Psalms 74-77, but I'm going to focus on part of Psalm 77.

I'll be honest, I don't like most of Asaph's psalms. They don't speak to me the way David's do. They can even be a little depressing.

But I found part of Psalm 77 to be good. Let me share it.

Psalm 77:11-15 - I shall remember the deeds of the LORD; surely I will remember Your wonders of old. I will meditate on all Your work and muse on Your deeds. Your way, O God, is holy; What god is great like our God? You are the God who works wonders; You have made known Your strength among the peoples.

What god is like our God? What god is holy like our God? What god works wonders and miracles like our God? What other god can claim such perfection?

Our God is holy. He is mighty. He is wonderful. He is merciful. Our God was, is, and always will be. His ways are perfect.

And that can be daunting if you think about it long enough. But I like to remember that He is merciful. He knows we aren't perfect. 

That's why He sent His Son, Jesus, to die on the cross. He knew we weren't perfect, and that our inclination toward imperfection would separate us from Him. That's also why we can rely on Him. When we mess up, we fess up, and He will forgive us. He will lead us back to the perfection of His holiness.

And I enjoy reading verses that remind me of that.

I hope you'll join me tomorrow when I read Psalms 78-79.
