A Cut Above
Be still and know that I am God. Psalm 46:10 NIV
The word holy means “to seperate.” The ancestry of the term can be traced back to an anceint word which means “to cut.” To be holy, then, is to be a cut above the norm, superior, extraordinary… The Holy One dwells on a different level from tthe rest of us. What frightens us does not frighten Him. What troubles us down not trouble Him.
I’m more of a landlubber than a sailor, but I’ve puttered around in a bass boat enough to know the secret for finding land in a storm…. You don’t aim at another boat. You certainly don’t stare at the waves. You set your sights on an object unaffected by the wind—a light on the shore—and go straight toward it….
When you set your sights on our God, you focus on One “a cut above” any storm life may bring…. You find peace.
“The Great House of God” by Max Lucado
