A Song of Love

Daily Reading

Psalm 145 >

 

Daily Reflection

This Psalm illustrates an ascent into a place of faith where most of us yearn to be, a place of steadfastness and surety. A place where we know without a doubt that our help comes from the Lord and our feet will not be moved. We yearn for a place of faith where we know, like the psalmist, that God is active, not passive. A place in our lives where the imagery and words we use to describe God sound like a love story. How do we get to this place? The psalmist, King David, would tell you that these words came out of many pitfalls and valleys. His life was one of great friendships, betrayals, sinfulness, and yet he clung to the one thing he knew to be true. God was faithful and the one that cares for him despite it all. Hence, these words come out of a man who had seen and experienced much brokenness in his lifetime and yet, he sung these words. These words are not pithy words rather, words of depth. God's grace shines the brightest on the backdrop of our brokenness and David understood that, do you? Pray that during this Lenten season you will come to terms with the depths of your brokenness and see the depth of God's immeasurable grace.
