To Be Least

"For he who is least among you all--he is the greatest." (Luke 9:48)

Psalm 127:1-2

   Unless the LORD builds the house,
its builders labor in vain.
   Unless the LORD watches over the city,
the watchmen stand guard in vain.
     In vain you rise early
and stay up late,
toiling for food to eat-
for he grants sleep to those he loves.

      Tomorrow being Sunday I thought this verse would apply. God asks us to honor the Lord's day. Here, this psalm starts out by simply saying that unless the Lord is with you, whatever you do is in vain. However, the next verse really pulls it together for me. In the foot notes it says that it can also be translated as, "for while they sleep he provides for." You get up real early, go to bed real late, just to work. But according to these scriptures, he will provide while you "sleep."
      So is there any need to work on the Lord's day, whatever day that might be for you? Of course not, God will provide, he will take care of you. God bless.

P.S. Sorry I haven't been updating recently, I've been feeling rather sick. By the way I am officially 15 years old. My birthday was the twenty fifth.
