Thought for Monday July 18

Let us sing to the Lord; he has covered himself in glory.

I will sing to the LORD, for he is gloriously triumphant;

horse and chariot he has cast into the sea.

My strength and my courage is the LORD,

and he has been my savior.

He is my God, I praise him;

the God of my father, I extol him.

Let us sing to the Lord; he has covered himself in glory.

Matthew 12: 38 – 42 Just as Jonah was in the belly of the whale three days and three nights, so will the Son of Man be in the heart of the earth three days and three nights.

Have I ever been stubborn and spent time “in the belly of the whale” instead of doing what I knew I should do? How long does it take me to change after I know I should?

Action: If there is some change you have been dreading or avoiding maybe now is the time to get on with it.
