Psalm 27:13 - Guest Post


I have found and love this verse so much that it warrants a couple of different translations. If I could neatly package up Daniel's accident and my reaction to it, it would be this verse. Every post I have written about my life, my thoughts on making it through, my "strength", is summed up in this verse.
It's amazing how quickly I can hear from my God when I plead and call out to him. Just last night I prayed that my hurt and the injustices I sometimes feel would ease and I could see His bigger picture more clearly and quickly when I begin to feel exhausted about Daniel's death.
This morning, He worked through Facebook (you have to at least smile at that. Facebook? Really?
But that was how to get to me) and someone posted this verse. I was almost there
and possibly could have skimmed over it had it not been for my Facebook prompting.
I have talked to people who don't have an understanding on how God could "do" this to us. I say to them, God didn't "do" this but He is "doing" something with it. I have longed to find something that can explain the "why" to my "what" concerning the "strength" I have in all of this. And here it is. In my manual to all of "this".
Psalm 27:13 Yet I am confident I will see the Lord's goodness while I am here in the land of the living NLT version
I'm sure now I'll see God's goodness in the exuberant Earth. Stay with God!
Take heart. Don't quit. I'll say it again; stay with God The Message
I would have lost heart, unless I had believed that I would see
the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living NKJ version
I would have been without hope if I had not believed that I would see
the loving-kindness of the Lord in the land of the living. NLT version
