You can tell how God loves God's people -- it jumps off the page. God delights in the people. Here on the mountain, God starts by reminding Moses of how great God's love for the people is. Everything else is rooted in this.
Today, there will be all sorts of noise in the world. The news will be bad, and it will be depressing, although there will be some good news. You will worry or feel anxious, about yourself or someone you love. There will be uncertainty -- lots of uncertainty! That is always frustrating, no matter how many times we tell ourselves that we're growing more comfortable with it.
Remember, God has born you on eagles' wings across the gulf that separated us from God due to sin. God brought you to himself. You are God's treasured possession, and the earth is God's.
So let us live with a sense of joy in our soul, and may we serve God as a holy people in the midst of all we do.
