My devotional
thoughts were directed to Psalm 42 this morning, and the questions were
pointed. “Why ARE you cast down oh my
soul?” and the directive to hope in God
, given twice. In the middle of the
Psalmist reminds himself of the love Yahweh …the one who keeps covenants: giving love by day and songs by night. No matter how much I hurt … no matter how
messy I feel like this is… no matter how much I still miss my parents even at
my age, Jesus is here. I think that may
be one implication of deep calling to deep … when we think we’re drowning in
grief and sadness, God is deeper and He is there to catch us … “deep calls to
deep” (vs. 7). As an unknown author
said, “there is no pit so deep, but God is not deeper still.” And maybe it’s time I asked the Father to
sing me a song or two. I hear He
has a lovely voice.
