One of the most beautiful and awe-inspiring things is to have a water’s-edge view as a storm builds and works its way in across a lake. There is something about watching the clouds billow and darken, the waves picking up in size and intensity, and the raw power of the lightning as it almost seems to crackle across the surface of the water, that reminds you of just how puny and powerless you really are.
Well, it would seem that King David may have had similar thoughts, because in the psalm we are going to look at today, he uses the imagery of a violent storm to describe the breadth of glory and strength found in our God, and presents it as the fuel and inspiration for our worship.
It's never a bad time for us all to hear some reminders of just how great and deserving of worship our God is, and we're going to find that today in Psalm 29. Specifically, we’re going to see in David’s words a What, a Why, and a Now What? What does God deserve? Why does he deserve it? And Now What do we do about it?
