Meditation
Added 2022-03-11 12:01:01 +0000 UTCGood morning!
Meditation has become a more common practice for many people than I recall from years ago. It is usually undertaken in an effort to feel more peace.
There are different forms of meditation. From a more “universe” aspect, people try to empty their minds. From a “God” aspect, we try to fill our minds.
I had been reading in Psalm 33 and this made me think about meditation:
“Even if a king has the best-equipped army, it would never be enough to save him. Even if the best warrior went to battle, he could not be saved simply by his strength alone. Human strength and the weapons of man are false hopes for victory; they may seem mighty but they will always disappoint.
The eyes of the Lord are upon even the weakest worshipers who love Him - who wait in hope and expectation for the strong, steady love of God.” Psalm 33:16-18 TPT
Meditating on God and Who He is and all that He has done, fills us with hope and joy that our King will always be with us and rescue us. Yes, even my dad was rescued. We are not meant to live forever on this earth. Even though he experienced some pain and his life ended with cancer, he was rescued from the weight of this world and entered into the heavenly Kingdom.
For me, it is all empty and worthless if I am not meditating and filling my mind with Truth. Nothing will ever be enough, no real peace will ever come, unless it is based on the truth - Jesus - THE way, THE truth, THE life!
