GIVING GOD CREDIT (Psalm 9)
Let’s say you have a moment of brilliance. An amazing idea springs into
your mind and you just know that it is one of your greatest. Then
pretend you share it with someone in your excitement, and you just know
they are going to be excited with you. But instead, they steal your
idea and claim it for their own. They get all the credit and everyone
thinks they came up with it themselves. That would really be deflating!
To have someone take the credit for something you did. Our song from
Psalm 9 for today reminds us that we should be careful not to do this
exact thing to God. How often do we take credit for what God actually
provides and does? David challenges us to give thanks with all our
hearts and to recognize the incomparable power of God that is at work in
our lives and in our world.
