4. January 2012 by BruceSmith.
“Answer me when I call to you, my righteous God. Give me relief from my distress; have mercy on me and hear my prayer.” Ps 4:1
As David did, we have the mind-boggling privilege of standing before God, offering ourselves in humility, and submitting our cries for help, knowing, all the while, that God hears us, knows us, and moves on our behalf. What is your need today? Ask God, your Father, the lover of your soul, to intervene and make His way forward. May it be so for us all.
Amen.
That we have a direct communication link to the creator of the Universe is a staggering reality. He who created all from nothing, and who sustains it all, chose us. He chose to create us, engage us, and walk with us. It is unthinkable that we would go about our lives with so little passion for greater intimacy and desire for His way forward. When the earth shakes before us, when the pillars of pleasure, money, and self fall apart, when the transient mores of a misguided culture do not fulfill, only God is enough for our souls.
David knew this in victory, in pain, in loss, in failure. It is our truth to know as well. God, the great “I Am”, still IS our only hope, rest and peace. He sees all, knows all, and wants all good for you and for me. Walk today, this year, in the reality of God nearness and providence. In Him we live and move and have our being.
