Psalm 24:1

As I look to the Lord to see where and what I am supposed to be doing with my life, I am constantly reminded of a verse that He continues to show me. Psalm 24:1 says "The earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof, the world and those who dwell therein." It is a great reminder knowing that God is in control of all things because He is the one that owns everything. The beauty of that verse can't be fully seen without reading the entire Psalm because of what the author says at the end. Verse 9 says "Lift up your heads, O gates! And lift them up, O ancient doors, that that the King of glory may come in." The reason the earth is the Lord's and everything in it is because God is preparing the way for the King of Kings, the King of Glory.....Jesus Christ!!
