This week I began praying through Psalm 27. I love praying through verses because it helps me study the bible, and to really dig into praying more intentionally. I pick apart each line, praying and reflecting over the words and how they apply to my life. Verse one says "The Lord is my light and my salvation -so why should I be afraid? The Lord is my fortress, protecting me from danger, so why should I tremble?" I picked it apart. "The Lord is my light." I am going through some things right now, and had been calling this time my darkness. But this verse says the Lord is my light. There can be no darkness where there is light. I am going through a valley, but there is no darkness because I have Christ. "And my salvation." My salvation is not dependent upon me. And in fact nothing I do can really stand in God's way, so why am I afraid? "So why should I be afraid?" Well, imagine my chuckle after thinking that previous ending though
A little humor, a little drama, and a lot of life.
