The Lord Loves Righteousness and Justice

God's Creative Word
God Calls For Justice:  Justice Enacted

Praise for God's Justice

Psalm 33:1-5

The Message
    Good people, cheer God! Right-living people sound best when praising.
   Use guitars to reinforce your Hallelujahs!
      Play his praise on a grand piano!
   Invent your own new song to him;
      give him a trumpet fanfare.

 4-5 For God's Word is solid to the core;
      everything he makes is sound inside and out.
   He loves it when everything fits,
      when his world is in plumb-line true.
   Earth is drenched
      in God's affectionate satisfaction.

For Reflection
To some praise comes easy.  For others it is and uncomfortable display of emotion, an out of control experience.  Praise is lively. Praise is a release of emotional commitment.  Praise is a loud applause.  If you applaud an athletic or artful performance you can also lift applause to God.   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lPtpPz8fxwk&feature=related

Pray
Praise God with beautiful noise.  Sing songs of praise (even if it is only in your head!)
