Bible in a Year: Ezekiel 22-23, 1 Peter 1

I love you, Lord, my strength.
Psalm 18:1

Today's Scripture & Insight: Psalm 18:1-6

Many consider Ferrante and Teicher to be the greatest piano duet team of all time. Their collaborative presentations were so precise that their style was described as four hands but only one mind. Hearing their music, one can begin to grasp the amount of effort required to perfect their craft.

But there's more. They loved what they did. In fact, even after they had retired in 1989, Ferrante and Teicher would occasionally show up at a local piano store just to play an impromptu concert. They simply loved making music.

David also loved making music—but he teamed up with God to give his song a higher purpose. His psalms affirm his struggle-filled life and his desire to live in deep dependence upon God. Yet, in the midst of his personal failures and imperfections, his praise expressed a kind of spiritual "perfect pitch," acknowledging the greatness and goodness of God even in the darkest of times. The heart behind David's praise is simply stated in Psalm 18:1, which reads, "I love you, Lord, my strength."

David continued, "I called to the Lord, who is worthy of praise" (v. 3) and turned to Him "in my distress" (v. 6). Regardless of our situation, may we likewise lift our hearts to praise and worship our God. He's worthy of all praise!
