Fantastic Friday #798 - Let

Let

8 Praise our God, all peoples,
let the sound of his praise be heard;
9 he has preserved our lives
and kept our feet from slipping. Psalm 66:8-9

Let, enable, grant, authorize, give permission. Do you let God be heard, or do you try to hide His voice under a pillow so people don't look at you with a side eye? I was so impressed by many of our Olympians who were gracious to our country and their freedom, but also bold enough to let their feelings about their Father in Heaven be heard. We get so caught up in what the world would think if we said something about how God protected us through an issue, saved us from our sins, or how He gives us strength daily, that we try and silence Him. But the funny thing is, God cannot be silenced, even while we push His voice away, He finds ways to show His presence and Grace. He doesn't need us, but everyone needs Him. Don't try to silence what He has done, but Let us expound on what He has done for us.

Have a great weekend.

Matt
