For who in the heaven is like the Lord?



"And the heavens shall praise thy wonders, O LORD: thy faithfulness also in the congregation of the saints. For who in the heaven can be compared unto the LORD? who among the sons of the mighty can be likened unto the LORD? God is greatly to be feared in the assembly of the saints, and to be had in reverence of all them that are about him. O LORD God of hosts, who is a strong LORD like unto thee? or to thy faithfulness round about thee? Thou rulest the raging of the sea: when the waves thereof arise, thou stillest them.... The heavens are thine, the earth also is thine: as for the world and the fulness thereof, thou hast founded them." Psalm 89:5-11

Recently a missionary spoke with me in order to encourage me and he said, "God can shake the clouds in the sky to meet the needs of your ministry and the needs of your hearts." It is a simple and profound reminder of God's limitless resources. He does not leave us hopeless or helpless because He is not limited to my personal resources.

We travel to Maryland this weekend and will follow that meeting with a quick trip to see our family in Chesapeake, Va. Our daughter and granddaughter will come with us.

Pray for the clouds to be shaken! Thanks.
