God is...

I don't know about you, but often times I need reminded just who God is. I have always loved anything that vividly describes the attributes and character of God, weather that be a song, poem, book or scripture. These characteristics and names of God personalize Him and help clear away the worldly misconceptions that my mind often creates about Him. Lately, I have found that it helps me to repeat in my mind different attributes or names of God to chase away whatever is trying to fill my mind and heart with fear, doubt, or sin. I repeat things like "God is my Shield, my Strength, my Portion, Deliverer, Strong Tower, my very present Help in time of need", which are lyrics from one of my favorite songs. There is another song that has been speaking to me lately, as it lists many of the names of God and reminds me just how masterful my God really is.

I am often amazed at the many things God does/is. At different times I need God in different ways - there are times when I need a provider, other times when I need a comforter, other times when I need a strong tower...Thank goodness God is all of these. Thanks for the reminder, B.
