There are days ... therefore, wait for the Lord

Morning: Psalms 75, 76; Genesis 43:16-34; I Corinthians 7:10-24
Evening: Psalms 23, 27; Mark 5:1-20

There are days when the world’s troubles weigh heavily. But as you search, sometimes a word breaks through. Take Psalm 27: “The Lord is my light and my salvation; ... the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? ... Wait for the Lord; be strong and let your heart take courage; wait for the Lord!” People of faith are not punier than those who try to get by without God. Indeed the Light of God animates and fills the universe and everything in it. So we are stronger when we make God’s purposes and strength our own.
