The Lord sits enthroned over the flood; the Lord sits enthroned as king forever. Psalm 29:10 ESVWhen we find ourselves in the flood we can be comforted in knowing the Lord as our king. He is dwelling within, Lord of us all, and will keep us through the storm. We are in the Ark with Him with the New Creation passing through the abundance of water.
So glad for this verse today: as newborn babes desire earnestly [crave] the pure mental milk of the word, that by it ye may grow up to salvation - 1 Peter 2:2 Try reading 10 chapters by the choice of craving and then read some more by the reactive desire of it. How often are my 5 or 10 second moments spent checking some other happiness than Christ? In 5 seconds I can check notifications or I can chew on my manna for the day. In 10 seconds I can check for new emails or rehearse that verse I've been trying to memorize. I can spend just 5 minutes listening to the news or I can spend it finishing a daily Bible reading portion. Mother's milk is the best thing for the newborn baby. The milk of the word is the best source of joy all through the day. "crave ... the word ... if indeed ye have tasted that the Lord is good."
