Weeping may last for the night (or a day or 2), but a shout of joy comes in the morning. Psalm 30:5b (comment mine)
The past few days have brought on a very real spiritual attack on my heart, mind and body. I felt sick, lost and, literally at times, found it difficult to breathe. I kept referring to the decisions that are to come as uncertainties, but when I am walking with the Lord, there are no uncertainties, only hope. Despite the full-fledged attack by the enemy trying to shake me at this time, my heart still sang a song (2 actually)…
“10,000 Reasons” by Matt Redman —
Bless the Lord, O my soul, O my soul,
Worship His holy name.
Sing like never before, O my soul,
I’ll worship Your holy name.
“Always” by Kristian Stanfill —
Oh, my God, He will not delay,
My refuge and strength always.
I will not fear, His promise is true,
My God will come through always, always.
