Do You Feel Weak Today?

The other day, I read Psalm 3 again.  There were certain phrases about God that just leaped off the page.Sausalito_and_golden_gate_2

From Psalm 3:

But you are a shield around me, O Lord;

you bestow glory on me and lift up my head.

he answers me from his holy hill.

…I wake again because the Lord sustains me.

From the
Lord comes deliverance.

Reminder after reminder that God is in charge, sovereign, and is very much involved in my life–and yours.

I assume that this is just you looking at your computer.  So between you and me, let me tell you something about my life.  I really need to hear that God is in control.  I need to hear that God is really active in my life.  I need to hear that he is a shield around me.

Why?

There are times when I feel insecure…
There are times when I cry out to God, feeling overwhelmed by life…
There are times when I wake up wondering how it (life) will all work out…
There are times when I feel alone (even though I’m not)…

Today,  I read in my Bible these important words:  From the Lord… (3:8).  Now that is good news!  Because what I need to deal with this life is not going to come from within me. 

Today, I am depending on what I get From the Lord.

What about you?  Do you feel weak today?  Maybe you realize that you just don’t have it within you.   You may feel weak but God is strong.  He is enough.

  1. We’ve been contemplating Psalm 3 this week some in our yahoo group. I’ll send them your link for today’s post. It is a very powerful Psalm. Our dependence on God goes a lot deeper than most of us admit/realize.
