#41: psalms 71
God has touched me in a way that has never occured to me before. i don't know why. but in the morning, i read psalms 71 and it came so clearly to me that.. i shouldn't be afraid to change or be different from what i used to be. that i shouldn't be afraid of what the world may do to go against me. that i shouldn't be afraid of .. unspeakable things. that i shouldn't be afraid of being alone and not comfortable. because of the situation that i'm in now, an environment that isn't that of home, love, warmth. Nothing can describe how much i long for the comfort of home. of FAMILY. of FRIENDS. but now i know that i don't need to have it physically. because i have God and God is truly enough.
Though you have made me see troubles, many and bitter,
you will restore my life again;
from the depths of the earth
you will again bring me up.
You will increase my honor
and comfort me once again.
I will praise you with the harp
for your faithfulness, O my God;
I will sing praise to you with the lyre,
O Holy One of Israel.
My lips will shout for joy
when I sing praise to you-
I, whom you have redeemed.
My tongue will tell of your righteous acts
all day long,
for those who wanted to harm me
have been put to shame and confusion.
