"Treasure Days" -2

"Sing unto the LORD, bless his name; shew forth his salvation from day to day." (Psalms 96:2)
I actually made a mistake on yesterday's post; as if that never happens! I messed up and replaced "shew" with show; I guess I just assumed it was the other way. When you look up the meaning of these two words, "shew forth," the Hebrew word is 'basar.' It's a word that basically means tidings; but in the scope of bringing tidings, it has a general appearance of beauty, cheerfulness, and joyfulness. The main event in our lives is our eternity with the Lord; that is our goal, and it needs to be our passion. We should not let these minor unimportant events sour the passion of the main event, ever! Whether that be sickness or finances, nothing compares to the treasure of heaven, absolutely nothing! There really is a pretty simple message being put forth, one of being cheerful and showing the world that you have something that they need. Sadly, there are way too many long faces in the church; people who appear to be missing out on something instead of having the greatest gift that one could ever have. Don't think I am not talking about myself, because there are days when I know that my life looks unbearable, to say the least. It's really quite easy to complain about life, if you have something to complain about. Does that mean that we need to work at being pleasant and joyful? Absolutely! Some days it just will not come naturally, so you need to make it happen. You forget about feeling sorry for yourself, and you sing unto the LORD! I don't know how else to say it, besides just saying that we get out of the way of blessing His name! This is way too important to mess it up by feelings; how we feel is not important, not when it involves love...
"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: according as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, to the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved." (Ephesians 1:3-6) KJV
