Word for Today

From Psalm 16,

⁷I will bless the LORD who ^| gives me counsel;

my heart teaches me night ^| after night.

⁸I have set the LORD al- ^| ways before me;

because God is at my right hand, I shall ^| not be shaken

Dear friends, I have a prayer for you today, that your heart will teach you what you already know; namely that God is at your right hand, steadying you through life.

Night after night, I hope you will hear that reminder from your ver own heart, fluttering and pulsing within you. I also hope you will gain the fortitude, the steadiness it takes to experience the steadiness of God through you into the life of a neighbor.

That is all.
