Psalm 27

We found this most amazing psalm. It has given us so much strength.
We sometimes read it together at breakfast. I often read it before going to bed.

"The LORD is my light and my salvation— whom shall I fear?
The LORD is the stronghold of my life — of whom shall I be afraid?"

Written by (king) David at a time when he was on the run and under attack.
He talks about fear, security, future hope and belonging.
These are all things that have been swimming round my head having been confronted with my own mortality. Its so very weird.

v13 says - "I am still confident of this: I will see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living."
I'll buy into that!!
