Psalm 121:1
This blog post is my personal meditative reflection and interpretation of Psalms 121:1-8; Psalms 91, 41, 123 and 124.
This is dedicated to Sister Patsy Colson
I always will have my eyes forever transfixed upon the mountains, as my weary soul contends with the multiplicities of life’s challenges. For it is because of You, my Creator who sits enthroned in the heavens, while You also reside within my heart, that my life has meaning and purpose.
Thou feeble servant willfully, yields to Thee, as I seek much-needed refuge and Your blessed assurance that where I am now in my life, it is not my will that has brought me to this point, but it is only by Thou will, direction, and purpose! I affirm while in Thou presence, that all of my help and trust is in Thy mighty hands.
Had it not been for You, my Lord as You promised to never leave me nor forsake me, that I am able to obtain victory over those who are against me. It is because of You that sickness and hardships are not able to drown me. Because of You, my Lord, all of the evil misguided philosophies of those who are godless, have not enslaved my soul.
For it is You, my Lord that keep my feet allowing me not to stumble. For You are my shelter as I come before Your holy presence seeking Your face, while I lay before You, abiding beneath the shadow of Your mighty wings of protection.
For it is You, my King who is my keeper and my shade from all adversaries throughout my life. You have demonstrated and instructed me Thou servant, what grace and mercy looks like in public, as I strengthen my soul in Thou presence.
How blessed is my soul as I consider those who are helpless; for well within Your sovereignty, You have presented a means in which I may be in the presence of the most powerful as is the case with those who are devoid of power. You promised that You will protect and keep my soul throughout this evil generation. For it is only You that can bless me while granting thy servant favor while doing Thou bidding on earth.
Is not the hidden purpose of sickness and hardships in our lives, to attempt at distracting and or challenging our divine calling? Please, my Lord, do not let me lay helpless before Your eyes, without hope and purpose. For it is You my Lord who will sustain me in my sickness and my health. Thank you, My Lord, for guarding me in all of my going and my coming, from this time present, and the eternity to come.
Grace and Peace
