The Psalms are usually set to music and we don’t have the music notes to hand, which is why I love it when people actually do that themselves, especially when it works like a treat. In preparation for my brother’s birthday tomorrow, it’s definitely worth taking this in – to me it is a remarkably touching and passionately written song to the words that his biblical namesake recorded for our benefit. I’m a big fan of my brother’s work and not just because he’s my brother, but I genuinely hear and witness a creative genius at work and it’s a privilege to get to take this in and allow it to minister to me.
If you have been in a similar situation of seeming as though the odds you face are greater than you and you need to cry out to God, read the Psalm for yourself and then listen to this rendition and realise above everything else that however dark the day, when you cry out in the darkness, the light can break through however small the slither and in the meantime the hope and knowledge that He is on hand to deliver is a comfort and strength where there appears to be none.
For His Name’s Sake
Shalom
