Scripture:
But he caught me - reached all the way from sky to sea; he pulled me out Of the ocean of hate, that enemy chaos, the void in which I was drowning. They hit me when I was down, but God stuck by me. He stood me up on a wide-open field; I stood there saved - surprised to be loved! 2 Samuel 22:17-20, The Message About the Image: This is taken from the North Rim Trail of the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone looking down on the Lower Falls. If you look closely at the right of the image you will see the end of the "Brink of the Lower Falls" trail. We took that short trail and stood there in awe of the power of the water. (I have an earlier blog post with another image of these falls from further away if you want to see more of these falls). There were guard rails but still it was a little scary to look over the edge. The scripture today is from David's Song of Deliverance. Even though he had been anointed as the next king of Israel, he was hunted down by King Saul for years - yes years. He remained faithful through those difficult years. If you are facing a difficult time right now, know that you serve a God that will rescue you from the most turbulent waters and put you on level ground - put your hope in him. He will be the guard rail that will let you look safely into the roaring waters and experience his power.
