The Lord is my Strength

Psalm 59:16-17

But I will sing of your strength,
    in the morning I will sing of your love;
for you are my fortress,
    my refuge in times of trouble.

 You are my strength, I sing praise to you;
    you, God, are my fortress,
    my God on whom I can rely.

A few weeks ago I shared that I was excited to be able to watch my nephew leave for bootcamp.  This past week, we got word that he was being discharged.  Long story short, he couldn’t get past some of his past and was not going to be able to handle what would be ahead if he was still hung up on the past.  He will hopefully be home sometime this week. 

In times of uncertainty, prayer is the best thing we can do.  God is our strength in times of trouble. 

Each of us face times of uncertainty.  Sometimes those are exciting but uncertain times.  Sometimes those are not so exciting times.  Through it all, we need to remember that we can rely on the Lord and we are to sing praises to him. 

Next week I will share more on facing times of uncertainty with the strength of the Lord.
