Darkness and Light

 

In my mind’s eye I looked, and saw a sky of unremitting darkness which was suddenly torn apart by a shaft of light breaking through.

I read Psalm 46 in The Passion Translation. ‘Come and see the breathtaking wonders of our God…He’s the one who makes conflicts end throughout the earth, breaking and burning every weapon of war. Surrender your anxiety. Be still and realise that I am God. I am God above all the nations.’

Amen.

Whatever the news, with eyes trained on God and a will bent to remaining focused on him despite the distracting conversations of others, I surrender my anxiety to you today, Lord. What a blessing to be able to praise Him in the middle of every storm.

Louder and louder, my praises rise to Him today. He is Lord. He is exalted above all.

I am so grateful. The earth is the Lord’s and everything in it. He is the one who makes conflicts end. He will break every weapon of war.

The raging roar of stormy winds and crashing waves cannot erode our faith in God.

That is the truth. However things seem, that is the truth. He has the last word. He is the last Word. Alpha and Omega. We are in safe hands.
