Simple-minded

Recently God spoke alot to me on the chapter of Psalms 116
Here it goes:

Psalms 116:

Thanksgiving for Deliverance from Death

1 I love the LORD, because He has heard
My voice and my supplications.
2 Because He has inclined His ear to me,
Therefore I will call upon Him as long as I live.

3 The pains of death surrounded me,
And the pangs of Sheol laid hold of me;
I found trouble and sorrow.
4 Then I called upon the name of the LORD:
“O LORD, I implore You, deliver my soul!”

5 Gracious is the LORD, and righteous;
Yes, our God is merciful.
6 The LORD preserves the simple;
I was brought low, and He saved me.
7 Return to your rest, O my soul,
For the LORD has dealt bountifully with you.

8 For You have delivered my soul from death,
My eyes from tears,
And my feet from falling.
9 I will walk before the LORD
In the land of the living.
10 I believed, therefore I spoke,
“I am greatly afflicted.”
11 I said in my haste,
“All men are liars.”

12 What shall I render to the LORD
For all His benefits toward me?
13 I will take up the cup of salvation,
And call upon the name of the LORD.
14 I will pay my vows to the LORD
Now in the presence of all His people.

15 Precious in the sight of the LORD
Is the death of His saints.

16 O LORD, truly I am Your servant;
I am Your servant, the son of Your maidservant;
You have loosed my bonds.
17 I will offer to You the sacrifice of thanksgiving,
And will call upon the name of the LORD.

18 I will pay my vows to the LORD
Now in the presence of all His people,
19 In the courts of the LORD’s house,
In the midst of you, O Jerusalem.
Praise the LORD!

Wow! This verse is in season during this period of my life. All I want is a simple heart, enjoying all that I do in my life. A simple heart and simple person is different. Simple-hearted people is what God loves.
All I wanna be is a bondservant of His.

Merry Christmas!!!

Oh Ya, received this book 'Killer Angels' by Micheal Saara from my cousins.
Seems like a good book.
Dun be deceived by the name of the book like its some satanic book.
Its about the American Civil war and about a particular Battle, the Battle of Gettysburg.
Read the reviews and it seems that this book would touch more on the character's moral, military and relational decisions. The main characters are the Generals and Colonels of both sides. Cant wait to read it!
