Deep Is Calling Deep
Psalm 42:6-8 (MSG) gives us such a clear visual of life when things are not going well for us. Listen to how the Psalmist responds to hard days....and what God does in response:
"When my soul is in the dumps, I rehearse everything I know of you," (when I'm sad or anxious, I remember and speak out everything Your Word has revealed to me of You)...
"From Jordan depths to Hermon heights, including Mount Mizar." (from the depth of losing someone or something dear to me - to finding great success or accomplishment - and even when I am on the edges of following You)...
"Chaos calls to chaos, to the tune of whitewater rapids. Your breaking surf, your thundering breakers
crash and crush me." (the deepest part of me is overwhelmed and nearly crushed under the deepest parts of You)...
"Then God promises to love me all day, sing songs all through the night!" (it is then I am most aware that God has promised, and He is Faithful, to always love me; even singing songs over me all through the hardest parts of my day when I can't see the light)...
"My life is God’s prayer." (if prayer is my communication with God there is something so reverent in knowing God is speaking to the world around me through my life)...
Deep is calling deep today. Set your mind on what you know of God and keep remembering. Know that He is loving you all through the day and in the dark God is singing His Song over you. Let your life be God's prayer.
