PONDERING
Today's reading:  Psalm 111-113

"How amazing are the deeds of the Lord!  All who delight in him should ponder them."  Psalm 111:2 NLT

To 'ponder' means to weigh in the mind, to think about, to reflect on, to think or consider especially quietly, soberly or deeply.

In everyday words it means to chew on, to dwell on, to contemplate, digest of meditate.

When I think of all the things taking over my brain processes...the things I dwell on...the things I stew over...the things that overtake my mind...I am ashamed.

I should be allowing the greatness of my God to overwhelm my thoughts.  I should allow the wonder of His great accomplishments to overload my senses.  I should set aside what's undone, what's unanswered and what's unlovely and focus my attention on Him.

'How great is our God.  Sing with me, how great is our God. All will see how great, how great is our God!'   -Chris Tomlin
