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.

One of Those Days

Psalm 142:6 (KJV) Attend unto my cry; for I am brought very low: deliver me from my persecutors; for they are stronger than I.

(Proverbs 2 also read)

There are times when I am aware of the saying “This too shall pass.”  I’m having one of those days when I’m feeling like the world is against me.  And this whole chapter kind of speaks to me.  It reminds me that this is nothing new.  I’ve had these days before.  I will have them again.

Much of the being brought low is in my mind.  Most of it is because I have been accosted in such a way that I tend to forget that the Lord is there watching and listening.  This reminds me.

As David, I will call upon the Lord and be reminded that He is there.   He never left.  I just got focused a little too much on me.  Of course they’re stronger than me . That’s the way life is.

So?  Refocus.  Remember.  Repent.  And, of course, rejoice.
