Late but finally here

I am thankful for the Lord's patience with me. When I feel prompted to do something it seems to take forever before I finally do it. I have felt for awhile (since summer!) that I needed to do a blog like this.
I look at the title of this entry and hope that does not mean my entrance to heaven! Well, at least if I get there... but I don't want to be late! (I'm not usually late getting to places - just doing things!)
Anyway, as I was finally seriously contemplating this blog I wanted a catchy name. I like catchy names and phrases. I started looking through Psalms for something. I decided on "Praise ye the Lord". It wasn't catchy or clever but it is how I want my heart to be -always singing His praises.
But, that blog title was taken so I had been thinking about using something to do with "whispers" and decided I would combine the two.
I will try to post once or twice a week and just share something I have felt or learned and I always want to give the Lord all the praise I can. He is the source of all the good in my life.
I will also share some favorite scriptures. I thought I would start out in Psalms because it is full of verses that say what is in my heart.

Psalm 1:2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

I am still working to achieve this. Wouldn't it be wonerful if we pushed all the sordid details of the world out of our minds and just meditated on the Lord's law day and night? Whenever I hear the phrase "always remember Him" I wonder how I can do better in this. I do ask what He would do or have me do in certain situations but I know He is not in my mind every single minute or I would be a much better person.

Something to pursue...

Sorry, I will try to keep future posts a bit shorter!
