A little Psalm 33... for the road

I have been reading Psalms 33 everyday now for about a week because Mekenzie recommended it to me. I love it so much, I can't explain the feeling I got the first time I read "he made your heart" 

It really is amazing that we have a God that knows us that well, he understands what we go through. He gives us joy in our hearts, and the ability to feel His anguish for lost souls. Our God is a compassionate God that is concerned with matters of the heart. I want to live for He that is all the things in this verse. Every minute of everyday I want to be concerned with God things, because He is good, and true, and totally worth it!

Thanks Kenz for the verse, I wrote it below from the international children's bible NCV for those that would like to read it. It's just like a real bible only smaller...


Praise God Who Creates and Saves!
Sing to the Lord, you who do what is right.
Honest people should praise him.
Praise the Lord on the harp. 
Make music for him on the ten-stringed lyre.
Sing a new song to him.
Play well and joyfully.
God's word is true.
Everything he does is right.
He loves what is right and fair.
The Lord's love fills the earth.
The sky was made at the Lord's command. 
By the Breath from his mouth, he made all the stars.
He gathered the water in the sea into a heap.
He made the great ocean stay in its place.
All the earth should worship the Lord.
The whole world should fear him.
He spoke, and it happened.
He commanded, and it appeared.
The Lord upsets the plans of nations.
He ruins all their plans.
But the Lord's plans will stand forever.
His ideas will last from now on. Happy is the nation whose God is the Lord.
Happy are the people he chose for his very own. 
The Lord looks down from heaven.
He sees every person.
From his throne he watches everyone who lives on earth.
He made their hearts.
He understands everything they do.
No king is saved by his great army.
No warrior escapes by his great strength.
Horses can't bring victory.
They can't save by their strength.
But the Lord looks after those who fear him.
He watches over those who put their hope in his love.
He saves them from death.
He spares their lives in times of hunger.
Sour hope is in the Lord.
He is our help, our shield to protect us.
We rejoice in him.
We trust his holy name.
Lord, show your love to us as we put our hope in you.
