Psalms 97:1-2

1 "The LORD reigns, let the earth be glad;
let the distant shores rejoice.
2 Clouds and thick darkness surround him;
righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne."

If you put "reign" after the name of someone, chances are a sense of royalty and honor is associated with them. Therefore, simply because of David's descriptionPsalms 97 begins by labeling God as the Ultimate King. I've often thought about what it would be like to be the daughter of someone in high authority. Look at celebrities, princesses, princes...it's an entirely different world when you live in a place of honor, simply because of your associations. I mean, how secure would you feel if your dad was the president of the United States and you walked around with the Secret Service 24/7? You could go anywhere you wanted, and you'd be protected from all harm! Well, according to the Word, I'm a child of God, and I have angels surrounding me because of that. Oh, isn't it great to be a princess--a daughter of the King? Knowing that I have a God with an army of angels behind and besides me allows me to walk forward in courage as I head off to college. The journey ahead is unknown, as well as the problems and challenges that I may face. However, I can march ahead in strength instead of cowering back in fear, knowing that I'm certainly not alone. My God's just not a God who would leave his loved ones behind. It's just not the way He is.
