When All Is Said And Done
READ PSALM 27
Life is made up of beautiful, chaotic, confusing, wondrous moments. Psalm 27 begins with praise (vv1–6), then moves to lament and uncertainty (vv7–12), and then back to praise (vv13–14). I find it an encouraging reflection of our journey as believers. Some days, we’re full of faith and praise; other days, we’re just holding on as uncertainty and doubt shake our hope. This psalm reflects David’s heart for praise but doesn’t shy away from the questions and uncertainty that sometimes arise in our own Christian walk.
King David’s life was a rollercoaster. We don’t know exactly when Psalm 27 was written, but we do know that his life included becoming a celebrated warrior, an outlaw, and a king. His failures saw him deeply humbled, unable to fulfil his deepest desire (to build a house for the Lord), and his children fighting amongst themselves.
Yet, when all is said and done, we see these beautiful words of trust and faith at the end of the rollercoaster of emotions, Psalm 27: ‘I remain confident… be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.’
How great to remember that, whether life is good or bad right now, there’s a constant truth that remains far more significant than the circumstances we might find ourselves in.
God is good.
