The Lord is my Light

We have just returned from an adventurous week of camping and fishing to the news that my grandmother has passed away. My brother is trying to get home from Iraq to attend services. We are trying to arrange flights today for my husband and I to be a part of the service. Life is full of unexpected twists and events. No matter what I am facing I seem to always find comfort in Psalm 27. I hope you do today as well.


1The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?The LORD is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?


2When evildoers assail me to eat up my flesh,my adversaries and foes, it is they who stumble and fall.


3 Though an army encamp against me, my heart shall not fear;though war arise against me, yet I will be confident.


4 One thing have I asked of the LORD, that will I seek after:that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life,to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to inquire in his temple.


5For he will hide me in his shelter in the day of trouble;he will conceal me under the cover of his tent; he will lift me high upon a rock.


6And now my head shall be lifted up above my enemies all around me,and I will offer in his tent sacrifices with shouts of joy; I will sing and make melody to the LORD.


7 Hear, O LORD, when I cry aloud; be gracious to me and answer me!

8You have said, "Seek my face."My heart says to you, "Your face, LORD, do I seek."

9 Hide not your face from me.Turn not your servant away in anger, O you who have been my help.Cast me not off; forsake me not, O God of my salvation!

10For my father and my mother have forsaken me, but the LORD will take me in.


11 Teach me your way, O LORD, and lead me on a level path because of my enemies.

12 Give me not up to the will of my adversaries; for false witnesses have risen against me, and they breathe out violence.


13I believe that I shall look upon the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living!

14 Wait for the LORD; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the LORD



In Him...Chris

Thanks for sharing these verses. I was praying this morning and asking God to speak to my heart concerning some struggles I have been facing. It was like he put this verse here today for me to read. Bless you!

Oh, Chris! I am so sorry about your dear grandmother. I can imagine that you are experiencing many emotions right now. {{{hug}}} I'm praying that all of your flights work out and that you will be able to be with your precious family, including your sweet brother. I'll be praying for you in the days ahead.

God bless you Chris.

The psalms are priceless! Thank you for sharing this one today.

Lord, bring a peace upon Chris and her family this day. In Jesus name, Amen
