When Fear And Trust Intermingle

When you find that God has brought you to a path to walk that was not what you had planned, and you have a battle going on in your mind and heart, remember that this is part of being human. Then take the battle to the Psalms, specifically Psalm 27, and be comforted to know that even David experienced these thoughts and emotions.

Through the utter turmoil of David’s life— decade after decade of turmoil— while he is running for his life, David says, “The Lord is my light and my salvation (deliverance); whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold (refuge) of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?” This Psalm is for every day of your life, not just the difficult ones. God is light. God is deliverance. God is refuge.
