Clearly

IMG_1729 mountains near Pincher Creek bw ch

O my God, shine Your light and truth
    to help me see clearly,
To lead me to Your holy mountain,
    to Your home.

Then I will go to God’s altar with nothing to hide.
    I will go to God, my rapture;
I will sing praises to You and play my strings,
    unloading my cares, unleashing my joys, to You, God, my God.

O my soul, why are you so overwrought?
    Why are you so disturbed?
Why can’t I just hope in God? Despite all my emotions, I will hope in God again.
    I will believe and praise the One
    who saves me and is my life,
My Savior and my God.

(Psalm 43:3-5 The Voice)

    1. Thank you, Neil. This was near Pincher Creek, Alberta yesterday. The weather is often quite dramatic there. It was extremely windy and I had to find a thick fence post to use as a tripod. (My little car actually went airborne for a few feet there once.) Changes in terrain, in weather, and in ways of thinking can all contribute to making us feel a bit unsteady. The scripture passage is preaching to myself, but I’m glad it resonates with you as well.
