October 1, 2022 -- Isaiah 66:1-2 -- Do you tremble before Him Who is Splendid?

People loved by the Father, in the Spirit's power: Sh'ma ~ hear and obey Jesus!

Thus says the LORD;
  “Heaven is My throne,
   and the earth is my footstool;
what is the house that you would build for Me,
   and what is the place of My rest?
All these things My hand has made,
   and so all these things came to be,
                           declares the LORD.
But this is the one to whom I will look:
   he who is humble and contrite in spirit
   and trembles at My word.
Isaiah 66:1-2 ESV

extrovert: outgoing, very expressive person
ebullient: sunny, breezy, full of energy

“The healthy Christian is not necessarily the extrovert, ebullient Christian, but the Christian who has a sense of God's presence stamped deep on his soul, who trembles at God's word, who lets it dwell in him richly by constant meditation upon it, and who tests and reforms his life daily in response to it.”
― J.I. Packer

God of Glory Whose presence fills all of creation, by Your Spirit's presence in me, teach me to honour You and praise You as I should do. As Your Spirit directs me to the word, may I see Jesus clearly and in view of Who He Is--the radiance of Your glory and Your True and Perfect Word--let me tremble before Him. Trembling with awe. Trembling with thankfulness. Trembling at the thought of offending Your great majesty. Thank You, oh thank you, that Your attention if fixed on the one who is humble, who is remorseful, and who trembles at Your word. Your kindness and never-ending love is beyond description. Fill my thoughts and attitude so that my words and deeds are constant praise to You. Amen.
