For Such A Time Is This.....

This morning I enjoyed cool breezes, reading, and perfectly steeped hot tea on the patio. A friend gave me a book a few weeks ago. This book is one that I saw a few years ago and the title intrigued me.

Before I even finished the 2nd chapter, I asked myself, "Why I didn't purchase this when I first saw it This book is really going to be good, I think." No sooner had I had that thought; these words welled up within me.......for such a time is this.

During my recent "down time" I have been a little frustrated with myself. I thought I would have read several good books by now. Over the past couple of weeks, every time I pick up a book, I couldn't seem to get into it. Again,......for such a time is this.

I stopped early in the 2nd chapter to pen these thoughts. So, back to the book I go. By the way - this is the book - Traveling Light - Releasing the burdens you were never intended to bear. Th Promises of Psalm 23

Excerpt from the book - from Chapter 2
.....David sets out to deliver us from the burden of a lesser deity.
One might argue that he seeks to do nothing else. For though
he speaks of green pastures, his thesis is not rest. He will
describe death's somber valley, but this poem is not an ode to
dying. He will tell of the Lords forever house, his theme is not
heaven. Why did Davis write the 23rd Psalm? To build our
trust in God...to remind us who He is.

Well, back to the book now. I'll let ya know how it turned out.
