Day 192

Chris Tomlin wrote a song called Not to Us. It is a song stating that all glory is not for us, but for the Lord. Psalm 115 verse 1 says, "Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to your name give glory..."

I believe this verse is a good one to keep in mind always. I am not living for myself, but instead living to give God glory.

Also, as I was reading Psalm 118, I was reminded of something I heard before. Psalm 118 is the middle of the Bible, but there is more to it than that. The information below is taken from http://jesuslovesmethisiknow.com

"Did you know that:

1) Psalm 118 is the middle chapter of the entire Bible?

2) Psalm 117, before Psalm 118 is the shortest chapter in the Bible?

3) Psalm 119, after Psalm 118 is the longest chapter in the Bible?

4) The Bible has 594 chapters before Psalm 118 and 594 chapters after Psalm 118?

5) If you add up all the chapters except Psalm 118, you get a total of 1188 chapters.

6) 1188 or Psalm 118 verse 8 is the middle verse of the entire Bible?
Should the central verse not have a fairly important message?

'It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in man.' - Psalm 118:8

Is this central verse not also the central theme of the entire Bible?"

Even through His word, taken from many different people at many different times in history, God's magnificence is displayed.
