Deuteronomy 7:9 (RSV)


Know therefore that the Lord your God is God, the faithful God who keeps covenant and steadfast love with those who love him and keep his commandments, to a thousand generations...


This Old Testament verse often plays on repeat through my head.  I know it as a little memory verse song (G.T. and the Halo Express is great for that!).  I've been thinking about all the elements of the verse, meditating on it, I suppose.

Know therefore that the Lord your God is God.  -- Not, consider, not guess, not suppose, not wonder...just KNOW. Trust in your knowledge, have faith, be sure. Know that He is God.  He is who He says He is. No room for doubt.

He is faithful and will keep His promise to us.  We can be sure of his never-ending love.

Our job - Love Him and keep His commands.

Know that He is God.

    While sitting in church today, I was struck by the end of the verse, Matthew 22:37. I've heard it over and over, but never felt it like this morning. I love the Lord, with all my heart and soul...but what does it mean to love Him with all my mind as well? This blog will be of my journey to that end.

    I'm a happily married girl in my forties with a very busy and stressful full-time job. I'm working to find the happy balance in my life and avoid a full-blown mid-life crisis :)
