Psalm 147- Hope & Awe

 “He is not impressed by the strength of a horse; he does not value the power of a warrior. The Lord values those who fear him, those who put their hope in his faithful love.”

‭‭Psalms‬ ‭147‬:‭10‬-‭11‬ ‭CSB‬‬

Read Context

It blows me away that the things that impress me (or humans in general) are of no interest to God.  It is so counterintuitive that God doesn’t care about me being impressive or having incredible skills, power or strength.  He isn’t awed by how much money I have or what my job is.  He doesn’t care what I have achieved or if I have been successful…He just wants me to place my hope solely in Jesus and be in awe of who He is!
