[[-SOAP HUB]] | [[-Psalm Overview]] | [[Psalm 29]] ## Title: Strength Comes from the Lord ## Scripture: (Psalm 29:10-11) “The Lord sits enthroned over the engulfing waters; the Lord sits enthroned as the eternal king. The Lord gives his people strength; the Lord grants his people security.” (NET) ## Observation: I was once helping some friends move. They had a little boy no more than about 5 years old who really wanted to help the men carry the heavy furniture. His father let him walk alongside us as we carried the heavy couches and appliances to the moving truck. While we would walk, he would have his hand on the side and say, “Dad, look at how strong I am.” The truth was he was probably causing more of a hassle than helping, but his patient dad would say, “You’re doing great. Keep going.” I wonder if the Lord sees us like that. We walk around thinking that we are doing it all, when the Lord is the one doing the “heavy lifting.” We serve a great God who controls all things. Not only that, but we could not even exist without His kindness. Every heartbeat, breath, and movement all belong to Him. He gives us the strength to do it all. What an amazing God we serve. ## Application: Take a moment and think of all God is doing just so you can read this right now. May we always remember His kindness is all around us. ## Prayer: Thank You, Jesus, for doing more than we will ever imagine.
