Reading – Psalms 27-30

Highlight Verse:

“Though a mighty army surrounds me, my heart will not be afraid. Even if I am attacked, I will remain confident.”
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭27‬:‭3‬ ‭NLT‬‬

I am not strong like younger me. Okay, truth be known, I was never very strong but I had more energy and could move more quickly.

But one huge advantage that 61 year old me has over young me is confidence.

Not the foolish confidence of youth that thinks he’s invincible.

I have confidence from many tough experiences that the Lord has brought me through.

He has never failed me before and I am sure He won’t start now.

Even the darkest nights have given way to new dawns.

And when that day comes that my circumstances usher me out of this world, I am confident that God’s grace is sufficient to bring me to my eternal home.

When you reach those dark times when you don’t know how you’ll survive, feel free to borrow my experience and confidence and know that you will make it through.

What has God brought you through that you can look back on for confidence?
How confident are you in God’s provision and protection for you?
