I will not be shaken, for he is right beside me.
9 No wonder my heart is glad, and I rejoice.
My body rests in safety.
10 For you will not leave my soul among the dead
or allow your holy one to rot in the grave.
11 You will show me the way of life,
granting me the joy of your presence
and the pleasures of living with you forever.
My body rests in safety.
10 For you will not leave my soul among the dead
or allow your holy one to rot in the grave.
11 You will show me the way of life,
granting me the joy of your presence
and the pleasures of living with you forever.
- Psalm 16:9-11
GOD is faithful even when we are in the middle of trouble, HE never leaves our side. It is food to our soul and rest for our weariness from troubles when we read David's psalm in the middle of trials. All the more we have to remember who GOD is when we are faced with troubles so we will not be shaken or moved. We can rest in HIS faithfulness when we look back and remember what HE has done for us. For there will come a time when we will be able to understand the storms that come our way or why GOD has allowed some hard things had to happen in our lives and usually this time of understanding comes after the strom has passed from our lives.
The LORD will never abandon His chosen ones, allowing their lives to come to nothing as their bodies rot in the grave. HE always has a wonderful purpose for our lives and will make sure to fulfill it by showing us the best path we should follow, and enabling us to enjoy His wonderful presence as we walk in the journey of life. HE is showing us everyday HIS wonderful ways and if we keep looking up and looking to HIM we will understand and enjoy the pleasures of living with the Almighty One from here until eternity.
