Psalm 135

It took me about 2 minutes to read this psalm; a song that focuses on the wonder and authority of God Almighty. There is indeed no one like him. In verse 6 the psalmist points out that God does exactly what he wants; however, wherever, and whenever he wants. Yet even in his exercise of supremecy that which God accomplishes at his will is also the very things and actions the we, his people, need accomplished. If God sends rain; it's what we need. If God witholds the rain; it's what we need. If God vanquishes attacking rulers; it's what we need. If God send calamity upon our nations; it's what we need. When God gives us rest; it's what we need. These are many of the same lessons that God taught Israel's father and his sons. We need to learn that lesson too.
