Spiritual Spelunking

Psalm 142:1 (KJV) [[Maschil of David; A Prayer when he was in the cave.]] I cried unto the LORD with my voice; with my voice unto the LORD did I make my supplication.

I don’t know if this first comment is part of the actual scripture or was added by an editor somewhere along the way, but for today’s purposes, let’s just take it as belonging here.  Notice that David is hiding in a cave and at the same time praying to God.  While he cowers in the cave, he declares his trust in God.  How often do we duplicate that scenario?

I’m not trying to point fingers here.  I have my share of times when I’m afraid to let my head come up about the berm.  I’m not always the boldest advocate on the block.  At the same time, there is a real lack of confidence that we display at times because we are not willing to step out and trust God to be in charge.

So?  Is this the day to emerge out of the cabin?  Is this the day you see yourself being a troglodyte?  God is ready.  I trust I am ready.  Let’s get about changing our world and let the chips fall, not where they may, but where God declares them to fall.
