An Idea Borrowed

Years ago on a radio program someone shared that they read a chapter in Proverbs every day. Since there are 31 chapters and the longest month has 31 days it allows you to read through Proverbs on a regular basis. I use it as the launch pad for my personal worship time and branch out from there. On this blog I will try to share some of the insights I have in the Word. I will try to organize them in the archive by reference.

Having a Bad Day?

Psalms 22:6 (KJV) But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people.

(Proverbs 7 also read)

This is David writing, according to the first verse.  This is the man who has been identified as being one who is after God’s own heart . In the next Psalm we will have that glorious statement of “The Lord is my Shepherd….”

Obviously, David was having a bad day.  Again, I remind you, if David can have a bad day, why do you think you won’t have them?  Or maybe you’re accustomed to it and are aware that sometimes it is the valleys of life that point out how special the peaks are.  It is the struggles that make the victories so glorious.  It’s kind of like how coffee makes the donut taste so good.

So?  Keep looking up, keep trusting, believe that God is there for you, and that He will be the one who hold you up, Who shelters you.
