Happy Wednesday! It is a good day, and blessed because our Father is with us ALWAYS, even to the ends of the earth.
Today, we are reading an excerpt from the songs of King David, Psalm 27:4:
One thing I ask from the Lord, this only do I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze on the beauty of the Lord and to seek him in his temple.
This is a strange verse. In the song, it is surrounded by times of trouble – enemies closing in from all sides, injustice, etc. And yet, here is a heart full of love for God, despite all the negatives.
How many of us can say that in the middle of a crisis in our lives, we can still focus on God and our love for Him? Do we even love God that much?
If we read further in the Psalm, the last two verses (13-14) conclude with a result of the love David had for God.
I remain confident of this: I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.
May we be as confident in God's love towards us, that we can stand strong and seek God even when we are in crisis mode. May our love for God outshine our circumstances.
In Jesus' Name, Amen.
