God's Word for Wednesday, 8/21/19

Yet the Lord will command his lovingkindness in the day time, and in the night his song shall be with me, and my prayer unto the God of my life.
Psalm 42:8 KJV



When my soul is in the dumps, I rehearse everything I know of you. From Jordan depths to Hermon heights, including Mount Mizar. Chaos calls to chaos, to the tune of whitewater rapids. Your breaking surf, your thundering breakers crash and crush me. Then God promises to love me all day, sing songs all through the night! My life is God’s prayer.
Psalm 42:8 MSG

The Message version makes no sense to me.

But I do thank you, Lord, for your love.

Linda, the psalmist is speaking of the things which remind him how BIG God is. And he takes comfort in God’s omnipotence.
