Pastor Dru Rodriguez highlights Tolstoy's insight that while proofs for God's existence are available to all, truly knowing Him requires a willing heart and ongoing communion with Christ; he encourages believers to abide in Jesus so His life flows through them.

Psalm 144A Psalm of David“Herman Gunkel once proposed that this poem was an ‘imitation' of Psalm 18, but, especially because some of the topics it touches on are unlike anything in Psalm 18, it seems more accurate to speak of certain citations from the earlier psalms woven into a different poetic context” Alter, 495. Psalm 144 is often called by form critics a royal psalm. This is because of the mention of David within the psalm-144:10 and because of the connections to Psalm 18. “The psalm may be divided into two major sections, based on the switch from first person singular language in vv. 1-11 to first person plural language in vv. 12-15” NICOT, 985. This psalm incorporates Psalms 18, 8, 39, and 33. “Our circumstances change, but the words that sustained us in the past continue to sustain in the present and will continue to sustain us in the future. For that is the nature of Scripture- indeed ‘old, tried, and true,' but ever new in changing circumstances” NICOT, 989.144:1 Blessed be the LORD, my rock- Ps. 18:2, 31, 46; 19:14; 28:1; 62:2, 6, 7; Deut. 32:4, 13, 15, 18, 30, 31.Who trains my hands for war- Ps. 18:34; II Sam. 22:35. Vs. 1 deals with the Psalmist's hands, vs. 7 God's hands, vs.7, 8, 11, 11 the alien's hands. The word trains was translated teach in 143:10.And my fingers for battle- The fingers may be mentioned because “the fingers refer to the pulling of the bowstring” Alter, 495. The only other mention of fingers in Psalms is God's finger in Ps. 8:3.144:2 My lovingkindness and my fortress- Speaking of God as my lovingkindness “is not unique: cf. Jonah 2:8 (9 Heb.), where it should against be taken as a designation of the Lord and His loyalty, rather than of man's loyalty to Him” Kidner, 478. Similar uses of this word in Psalm 59:10, 17; 89:28 emphasize God's lovingkindness to us and not man's response to God.  Lovingkindness in Ps. 143:8, 12 and Pss. 107:1, 8, 15, 21, 31, 43; 108:4; 109:12, 16, 21, 26.Fortress in Ps. 18:2; 31:2, 3; 71:3; 91:2. God's defense of him is because of God's love. My stronghold- Ps. 9:9; 18:2; 46:7, 11 and my deliverer- Ps. 18:2; 40:17; 70:5My shield- 3:3; 5:12; 7:10; 18:2, 30, 35 and He in whom I take refuge- 141:8; 142:5; 7:1; 11:1; 16:1; 31:1.Who subdues my people under me- Ps. 18:39, 47 “The violence of the verb suggests that ‘my people' is not intended. A plural ‘peoples' appears in the seemingly basis 18:48 (47) and II Sam. 22:48. “Every virtue he possesses every victory won…are His alone (I Cor. 15:10)” Laymen, 698. 144:3 O LORD, what is man that You take knowledge of him?- Ps. 8:4; Job 7:17. His view of God is exalted in 144:1-2, 5-8 leads him here in vs. 3-4 to humble himself and be astonished that God cares for him. This contrast between God's greatness and man's dependence on Him is seen in II Cor. 4:7. “What is man, king or commoner, that he should be worthy of such glorious beneficence from God?” Alter, 496. 144:4 Man is like a mere breath- Ps. 39:5-6, 11; 62:9; 90:9; 109:23 “The word breath is hebel, the same word used by the author of Qoheleth to describe life in this world” NICOT, 987.His days are like a passing shadow- Job 8:9; 14:2; Psalm 102:11; 109:23. “The line moves from mere breath to something still more insubstantial, a passing shadow” Alter, 496. Write for more notes

Worship Leader Taylor Cummings reflects on David's heartfelt plea for mercy, guidance, and forgiveness, emphasizing a posture of humble dependence as he waits patiently on the Lord's unfailing kindness. The message highlights confession, trust, and the enduring hope that God leads and teaches those who fear Him.

In today's culture of harsh self-criticism and comparison, these ancient practices offer a pathway to genuine happiness and sustainable success.Breaking Free from Modern Isolation Perhaps most timely is our discussion of her book "Real Life: The Journey from Isolation to Openness and Freedom." As loneliness rates soar and many people struggle with authentic connection, Sharon provides a roadmap for moving from isolation to genuine openness. You'll discover why vulnerability is actually a superpower and how mindfulness can transform your relationships.Why Listen Now?This isn't just another meditation discussion—it's a masterclass in applied wisdom for modern living.

It's mine to tender, it's my responsibility.”– Sharon SalzbergSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

May everyone here be happy. May everyone here be peaceful. It's amazing the change that happens in a moment. Instead of walking down the street being disconnected, all of a sudden, our hearts and our minds have expanded and become inclusive. It's like we gather everyone up in our field of goodwill.” – Joseph GoldsteinSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Having already explained in our previous podcast on this subject (S5 E1) that there are people who “give in order to take,” which is far from the ideal, in this episode we explore the concept proposed by Joseph Telushkin of “Imaginative Kindness.” When implemented – which is a cinch – it enables one to harvest so much more mileage from one's kindness.

Listeners will discover how equanimity functions as a stabilizing force in our emotional lives. Margaret emphasizes that it allows us to experience deep compassion, loving-kindness, and joyousness without being overwhelmed by our feelings. By observing our reactions to the roadside scenarios—where a stranger elicits mild compassion, a neighbor stirs more involvement, and a best friend creates profound emotional turbulence—she elucidates the varying shades of our emotional engagement and the importance of a balanced response. Throughout the discussion, Margaret stresses the importance of "not self" (non-attachment) as a foundational practice for cultivating equanimity. This practice encourages us to observe situations with clarity and discernment, freeing us from being engulfed by our emotions. She also highlights that true compassion encompasses both emotional understanding and practical actions, such as offering assistance to those in need. Importantly, equanimity does not imply cold detachment; rather, it invites a mindful approach to life's challenges, providing us with the tools to navigate our emotions with grace.

Today's Promise: Psalm 103:8 Do you see God as an angry judge, an impersonal force, or a loving father? Your view of God affects how you live the Christian life. Often, your view of God has more to do with how you were raised than what the Bible says about God. The only way to have an accurate view of God is to base it on what the Bible says about who God is and what He is like. This promise gives us four-character qualities of God. We are focusing on that last phrase: He abounds with lovingkindness.

Quick side note: My kid was sick the day I recorded this, so you may hear him coughing in the background. You may also hear the occasional airplane flyover. I invite you to just be present with an extra sounds and observe them as part of your present moment.Transcript(00:00:01):Welcome to your Monday Mindful Moment.We're going to do something a little different today.We're going to connect with our breath, as always.And then we're going to practice loving kindness, flowing loving kindness out to the world and to ourselves.So go ahead and find a comfortable position for your body.Begin to focus on your breath and the sensations that you feel as your breath moves in and out of your body.And allow your body to relax more and more into the surface that's supporting you today.Focus on the connection that you have with your breath. Noticing what it feels like to take an inhale.Noticing how your body moves as you breathe in, how your belly and chest rise.And then noticing the sensations you feel as you exhale, releasing air back out of your body, allowing your belly and chest to fall again.And now bring to mind a person or creature that you love, and allow the experience of holding this person or creature in your mind to fill you up with pure loving kindness.And now begin to flow intentions to them.May you be safe.May you be healthy.May you be happy.May you live with ease.And now expand your loving kindness and flow it to everyone in the world, even people you find challenging and perhaps wish to find less challenging.And flow the same intentions to them.May you be safe.May you be healthy.May you be happy.May you live with ease.And finally, include yourself in this flow of loving kindness.May we all be safe.May we all be healthy.May we all be happy.May we all live with ease.I'm going to bring this mindful moment to a close, but feel free to remain in loving kindness meditation, connecting with your breath and anyone and everyone you wish to flow loving kindness to today, including yourself. Feel free to remain here for as long as you like.Have a great day.Have a great day.Join me for weekly mindfulness!In addition to Monday Mindful Moments, I also host a mindfulness group called Mindful Creators every Wednesday on Zoom. The practices are recorded and emailed out the same day, so even if you can't make it live, you can still enjoy some guided mindfulness.I'm Amy Schloerb, The Aligned Actor

A new MP3 sermon from Grace Audio Treasures is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: #15 The LOVING-KINDNESS of God Subtitle: The Attributes of God Speaker: A. W. Pink Broadcaster: Grace Audio Treasures Event: Devotional Date: 4/26/2025 Length: 2 min.

"Because Your loving-kindness is better than life, my lips will glorify You." Psalm 63:3The loving-kindness of God is not a fleeting sentiment, but His steadfast and covenantal love manifested in gracious action. It is the sovereign outflow of His mercy and faithfulness, pledged to His chosen people from eternity past, and manifested throughout time. It does not arise from anything in us—but from everything in Him.Unlike the fragile affections of man, God's loving-kindness is unchanging. It met us in our rebellion, drew us to the cross, and now preserves us through every trial. It was His loving-kindness that patiently bore with our waywardness, that remained true when we were false, and that continually supplies our every need in Christ.God's loving-kindness reaches to the heavens, surrounds the believer, and never lets go! It comforts in sorrow, and disciplines in love.This divine love never wanes. It is not altered by our failures, nor diminished by our weaknesses. Rooted in His eternal purpose, it remains a sure anchor for the soul. In Christ, we are not merely pardoned—we are embraced. God rejoices over us, surrounds us with favor, and holds us fast in His everlasting arms!When the heart is heavy, remember His loving-kindness. When the night is long, rest in its unshakable assurance. And let our lips glorify Him—not only for what He bestows, but for who He is: the unchanging God whose loving-kindness is indeed better than life.Let this truth lead us to reverent worship, joyful obedience, and unwavering peace.

Hey beautiful soulful You!

Joni Rodgers is, first and foremost, a storyteller. She's also a critically acclaimed novelist and New York Times selling ghostwriter. She's worked with many well known people including Paris Hilton, Justin Bieber and Elizabeth Smart. Her ability to translate people's paths into a compelling narrative is unparalleled. "As a novelist, memoirist, and collaborator, I'm dedicated to storytelling that makes an impact and provokes thought. I believe in the power of a parable and in the art of memoir as a sort of cosmic cartography. We each have a small piece of the map of human experience; sharing our stories, we bring clarity and empathy to a collective understanding." The list of Joni's publications is long. Her drive comes partly from being given just five years to live due to a seemingly dire non-Hodgkins lymphoma. "What can I do in just five years? What type of handprint of loving kindness could I leave for my children?" she pondered. The answer lies in her extensive list of publications, crafting powerful memoirs that resonate with all of us. And that five year window is thankfully in reset mode. Enjoy this terrific podcast.   Subscribers can enjoy excllusive, extended conversations from this podcast.

God's true nature is beyond human comprehension. It can never be fully expressed in human words. But Scriptures uses one particular word to describe the distinctiveness of God's character; this is the Hebrew word hesed. Michael Card is an award-winning musician and performing artist.

Hello to you listening in Fredricton, NB, Canada!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for  Thoughts on Thursday and your host, Diane Wyzga.Maybe like me you have a robust imagination that works overtime to figure out all possible bridges that might be crossed in the future and how to cross them. The “what if” worries.And then I remember something mom used to say whenever I got to fretting about the not-yet-arrived tomorrow: “We will cross that bridge when we get to it.” Until tomorrow arrives there's no way to know what we'll be faced with and how to manage it.Meanwhile, our needless worrying sucks all the oxygen out of the joy, purpose, or wisdom of the present moment and piles on suffering like a bag of rocks on your back.Hear me when I say I recognize that these are mind-blowing times. We don't know what's what from one minute to the next.Practical Tip: Despite the current craziness we can practice loving kindness toward ourselves whenever our worries begin to run amuck. How? Repeat after me, “We will cross that bridge if and when we get to it.”You're always invited: “Come for the stories - stay for the magic!” Speaking of magic, would you subscribe and spread the word with a generous 5-star review and comment - it helps us all - and join us next time!Meanwhile, stop by my Quarter Moon Story Arts website to:✓ Check out Communication Services I Offer✓ For a no-obligation conversation about your communication challenges, get in touch with me today✓ Stay current with Diane as “Wyzga on Words” on SubstackStories From Women Who Walk Production TeamPodcaster: Diane F Wyzga & Quarter Moon Story ArtsMusic: Mer's Waltz from Crossing the Waters by Steve Schuch & Night Heron MusicAll content and image © 2019 to Present Quarter Moon Story Arts.
