Day 7

I just started day 8.

Last night I was reading Psalms 52-53. David sure seemed to be dealing with a lot of stuff. And most of it BEFORE he became king.

Psalm 52 saw David lamenting an injustice. It is a great model I should remember when I complain.

Too often I just have to tell someone how aweful life is, or how poor someone has been to me. Then it just stops there. There is really no resolution to my thoughts.

David ends this passage reminding us that, although evil seems to prosper, his hope is still in God.

"In your name I will hope, for your name is good."

Other than that, yesterday was pretty straight forward. I still find myself straining to see God in everything (sometimes, it is so clear, I really don't need to strain).

Here goes day 8...

Surprise me, God!
