Be Courageous and Wait

7Hear me as I pray, O Lord. Be merciful and answer me! 8My heart has heard you say, “Come and talk with me.” And my heart responds, “Lord, I am coming.” 9Do not turn your back on me. Do not reject your servant in anger. You have always been my helper. Don’t leave me now; don’t abandon me, O God of my salvation! 10Even if my father and mother abandon me, the Lord will hold me close. 11Teach me how to live, O Lord. Lead me along the right path, for my enemies are waiting for me. 12Do not let me fall into their hands. For they accuse me of things I’ve never done; with every breath they threaten me with violence. 13Yet I am confident I will see the Lord’s  goodness while I am here in the land of the living. 14Wait patiently for the Lord. Be brave and courageous. Yes, wait patiently for the Lord.   Psalm 27 (NLT)

“My heart has heard you say, “Come and talk with me.” And my heart responds, “Lord, I am coming.” Wow  Just… Wow. These heartfelt words from the psalmist reflect the strong emotions that we all encounter as we turn ourselves to face a Holy and wholly awesome God. One we have tasted of His goodness and experienced His love and His grace; once we have experienced HIM and His personality and had that first prayerful conversation with Him – we never want to be out of His sight or His thoughts. We experience Him in relationship as we grow in the understanding that there is no safer place we will ever be than in God’s will; and this is how we are “confident [we] will see the Lord’s goodness while [we] are here in the land of the living”
