Journal for April 8th

5:48 AM

Psalm 68, 8

Lord, it is true that Your Name is most excellent throughout the whole earth. A lot of Names are shouted at us every day -- from celebrities, politicians, products and places -- but only Your Name is excellent…at least to me. It is the Name of Jesus that gets Your ear; it is in the Name of Jesus that I can ask and receive; it is the Name of Jesus that renders peace to my heart when whispered in prayer.

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus…there's just something about that Name; Master, Savior, Jesus…like the frangrance after the rain; Jesus, Jesus, Jesus…let all heaven and earth proclaim: Kings and kingdoms will all pass away, but there's something about that Name.

So, Heavenly Father, I come to You this morning in the Name of Jesus. Forgive my sins; strengthen me where I am weak; and give me Your wisdom and love…all for the sake of, and in the Name of, Jesus.
