I was reading this am ...and this phrase came up several times..."I am the Lord your God"... Reminding me that He is the Lord my God...there is none other and He desires to stay that and not be put on a shelf or ignored in a multitude of ways each hour of each day...
Nothing else or no one else could or should take that First place in my or anyone else's life...He is the first and Last, never ending, always there, always loving, all knowing, all powerful God...no one made Him, no one can destroy Him, no one or nothing even comes close to what He is, has been or will be...
He is without time or constraint, He is...and will always be...He is, a true fact...no lies can make Him go away, no armies can fight the way He does...
He speaks and it comes to be, by the very words He says...
I am the LORD your God...what a comforting and awesome phrase...
Thank YOU, even though there are not enough words to express that "thank YOU".
