The Majestic Ones

Psalm 16:1-3 (NASB) "Preserve me, O God, for I take refuge in You. I said to the LORD, 'You are my Lord; I have no good besides You.' As for the saints who are in the earth. They are the majestic ones in whom is all my delight."

I have the enviable position of knowing some of the saints who are and have been on the earth. I am privileged to call several of them “friend” or “family.” Some of the family members have gone on to a better place, and so have several of the “friends.” Others are still involved with this adventure we call life.

I have a wonderful wife, two beautiful daughters, two sons-in-law, and five wonderful grandchildren for whom the phrase “in whom is all my delight” definitely applies. It is so true that we have nothing good that does not come from our Lord. I have also been blessed by knowing some of God’s faithful servants, both men and women, whose faith has allowed them to do wondrous works for our Lord. I am truly inspired by the ways I have seen you allow God to use you in his work. I will not call you by name, but if you happen to be one of those to whom I sent a note about this blog, you are a part of the circle of friends to whom I refer.

Thank you for allowing God to mold you into one of his “majestic ones.”
