Psalm 114 - WednesdAY

Psalm 114

1 When Israel came out of Egypt,
the house of Jacob from a people of foreign tongue,

2 Judah became God's sanctuary,
Israel his dominion.

3 The sea looked and fled,
the Jordan turned back;

4 the mountains skipped like rams,
the hills like lambs.

5 Why was it, O sea, that you fled,
O Jordan, that you turned back,

6 you mountains, that you skipped like rams,
you hills, like lambs?

7 Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the Lord,
at the presence of the God of Jacob,

8 who turned the rock into a pool,
the hard rock into springs of water.

Chin Ling: One of the most challenging period for me at work recently, and all the more I should take time to erad his word, hear his voice. During this HFMD period, I realise our decisions made are changed from hour to hour depending on the situation, everything is unpredictable, but as I read, all I felt and know is that MY GOD IS IN CONTROL! AMEN! :)

Eunice: Lord, at your presence, I tremble at your reverence. Lord.. thank you for teaching me to look ahead at the promised land, and not the desert. Indeed, you turn hard rock into springs of water.. Hallalujah!

Aileen: I was trying very hard to understand what this verse was talking about than it suddenly struck me. Woa. it's talking about the moses period, how the lord brought the people out and then Judah and Israel were under the governance (hence "dominion") of the lord but then the "sea fled" "the mountains skipped".. aka the people. What a timely reminder for me too.. Finally and i repeat FINALLY PSB confirmed that im teaching the morning class and i really thank God cause i realized that teaching PSB in the morning and coming back to Raffles in the afternoon will give me a substantial amount of ke cheng, and i really thank God for it! RReading this psalms reminds me not to take God's mercy for granted and not to complain!!! and not to let the sea flee and the mountains skip but to be firmly rooted in the lord.. yeah

Crow: Yup, like what chin said... God is in Control.. he who is able to instruct the sea and the mountains is sure able to work big miracles in our lives.. Indeed, if our God is for us, who can be against us?? Be discouraged no more, crow! :)

Huijuan: When i was reading the pslams, it jus reminded me of God in my life, He is always there for me. Today i really have no mood to study... i dun koe why... but i jus pray for God's presence to be with me!

Dellia: Have no fear my dear friends, because God is in control!
