This is a blog that I have created for my 5 grandchildren. I have a daily Scripture verse or two along with comments and questions. Hope this encourages young people to read in their Bible every day and to meditate on God's Word.

Read Psalms 96:6 These are powerful words in our verse today that describe God! First of all, David said that honor and majesty describe God. Honor means someone whom you respect or think greatly about them. They are an important person who we should be respectful to. Majesty refers to the glory and fanciness of a king. God is the King of heaven. He is called the King of kings. The kings of this earth are kings of countries. But God is the King over them all! Then in the last part of our verse, David described God as having strength and beauty. That is an interesting combination of words. These two words are actually opposites. If you have a pair of blue jeans, they are strong and sturdy. But if you have a nice, pretty dress, it has a lot of lace on it. It is beautiful. But usually, you don't have the two together. Either it is sturdy or it is beautiful. But both strength and beauty refer to God. He is glorious and majestic and also strong and powerful. I am glad that I serve a powerful God who is also kind and gentle.
