Light in the Darkness

Light in the Darkness

The true Christian is driven by adversity TO God

and not away from Him.

You, God, are my God,
    earnestly I seek you;
I thirst for you,
    my whole being longs for you,
in a dry and parched land
    where there is no water.

Psalm 63:1
Christians feel they have a right to turn to God at such times

On my bed I remember you;
    I think of you through the watches of the night.
Because you are my help,
    I sing in the shadow of your wings.
I cling to you;
    your right hand upholds me.

Psalm 63:6-8
It is David’s great desire to feel and experience the presence of God

and it should be the desire and experience of every Christian as well.

But the king will rejoice in God;
    all who swear by God will glory in him,
    while the mouths of liars will be silenced.

Psalm 63:11
For the true Christian believer God’s loving-kindness is the most precious think in life

Because your love is better than life,
    my lips will glorify you.
