A Hebrew Surprise in Psalm 147

In Psalm 147, there is a Hebrew surprise that is not obvious in translation. Notice these two verses (4&5):

“He determines the number of the stars;
he gives to all of them their names.
Great is our Lord, and abundant in power;
his understanding is beyond measure.”

The words “number” and “measure” are the same Hebrew word: mispar (מִסְפָּר). We might render it more literally, “He counts the stars, but his understanding cannot be counted.”

When we stare into the night sky, we cannot number the stars. They are too vast for our minds to comprehend. If we cannot fathom a visible element of creation, how could we ever fathom the mind of God?

@NigeriaTC Dear Commissioner, this is indeed very sad news. Our prayers are with you, the Nigerian Territory, and the families of those killed and injured. May God give you strength and wisdom as you come alongside these families and fellow Salvationists.

At the same time, an entirely different line was forming on the other side of the building. Volunteers and church members were providing more than 200 hot meals to anyone who was hungry: transients, day laborers, some battling addictions, others without houses or places to sleep.

For the grand opening of a newly designed and renovated Salvation Army thrift store in Goodwood, Africa, there was a ceremony with special music, city councilors in attendance, a ribbon cutting, and a line of customers out and around the street-front side of the store.

As the Salvation Army elects a new leader, Angela Tuck recalls how, as a child of officers in the Jesus Army, William Booth always had an omnipresence while her parents were ‘saved to serve’: https://t.co/EUDuq06qra

The Salvation Army family store in Goodwood, South Africa is more than just a thrift store—it's a mission. The words “There is only one way” are written on the back wall of the store with no explanation, and you are meant to ask why.

Hiring better employees is far more effective than hiring more employees. Many organizations tend to overhire because they have mediocre staff.

We keep Sabbath not because it makes us more productive at work. We keep it to resist the idol of productivity.

We are more than what we produce.

90% of leadership is really just:

- Showing up predictably
- Being aware of your emotions
- Wanting the best for other people

The little stuff that makes all the difference.
