—Psalm 27:1-6
by: Jennifer Lewis Berg.
The psalmist is a poet of grace and beauty, and nowhere is this shown more than in these six verses. Imagine being locked in a room so dark that nothing can penetrate. Then imagine a light, the light of God, opening up the darkness, and that same God taking you by the hand and saving you. No matter what comes–evil, enemies, wars, even death–the Lord is your stronghold. What immense freedom comes from that one thought! To be saved by him and dwell in his companionship and beauty, and his safety and protection—these are indeed blessings to sing about.
