a time to grieve; a time to dance

Have you ever found a glistening coin on the bed of a flowing stream? You point at it but your friend isn't quite able to see it. Or maybe your friend is pointing at something at a short distance and, for all your neck-craning, you can't quite see what it is.

This blog is exactly that. This is me pointing at something that I know is there and hope you'd see, too. Whether it's at a golden mask at the bottom of the well or an eagle soaring high in the sky, I wish you Happy Looking!

Psalm 145

Psalm 145 (New Living Translation)

A psalm of praise of David.
1 I will exalt you, my God and King,
and praise your name forever and ever.
2 I will praise you every day;
yes, I will praise you forever.
3 Great is the LORD! He is most worthy of praise!
No one can measure his greatness.

4 Let each generation tell its children of your mighty acts;
let them proclaim your power.
5 I will meditate* on your majestic, glorious splendor
and your wonderful miracles.
6 Your awe-inspiring deeds will be on every tongue;
I will proclaim your greatness.
7 Everyone will share the story of your wonderful goodness;
they will sing with joy about your righteousness.

8 The LORD is merciful and compassionate,
slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love.

This isn't the complete psalm. I wanted to focus on verse 4. It says each generation must tell its children of God's mighty acts. So I'm starting this list and I'm sure it'll grow if I'm faithful to add to it. "No one can measure the greatness of our God" so I'm sure there'll be lots of mighty acts in my life that God would do. It is up to me to list them down here so I can pass it on.

So, when Dana is old enough to understand, I shall tell her about...

1) how God saved us through the flood of Ondoy
2) Veck and my trip to Indonesia
3) how I experienced unconditional love and experience from God through Veck
4) the day she was born
5) the day I was born again
