In Psalm 27, the Psalmist says (and we often sing), the LORD is my light and my salvation, whom shall I fear?
The LORD is my light
- He guides me as a beacon from a lighthouse guides a ship in the night away from the rocks.
- He illuminates my life as candle gives light to a dark room.
- He shows me things in my life like a searchlight reveals things or people hiding in the darkness
- He dispels darkness from my life as light, by its very nature, must.
The LORD is my salvation.
- He is the key to my life and relationship with God.
- He is the key to me having eternal life.
- He is the key to me living the abundant life.
Whom shall I fear? If I have God as my light and my salvation, is there really any other significant area of vulnerability in my life?
I am persuaded as Paul was and as I pray you are, “that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
