We try to hide our faults and failures from others. We want people to see us at our best. Perhaps we assume that if people knew what we were really like, they would want nothing to do with us.

When we are all alone thinking about life, you may have wondered God what are you doing? Where is my life headed? You may have thought…

Who am I? Why am I here? Where am I going? These are just a few of what we call “the ultimate questions of life,” questions that run through our minds and haunt us all of our lives. Do I really matter? Does my life have a purpose? If God exists, does He know I exist? And if He does, does He even care…

Let us pray…God, may the words of my mouth, the meditations of all of our hearts, and the willingness of our spirits be pleasing unto you this day.

Read If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him. But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. That man should not think he will receive…

Where did we come from? Why are we here? Is there a creator? Why did he create? What’s his relationship with his creation? These basic questions have boggled the minds of men for millennia. For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but…

Introduction: Transition: Any small thoughts that we may have of God are magnificently transcended by this psalm; yet for all its height and depth it remains intensely personal from first to last.
