PSALM 30
I will extol thee, O LORD; for thou hast lifted me up, and hast not made my foes to rejoice over me.
LORD my God, I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me.
LORD, thou hast brought up my soul from the grave: thou hast kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit.
Sing unto the LORD, O ye saints of his, and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.
For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.
And in my prosperity I said, I shall never be moved.
LORD, by thy favour thou hast made my mountain to stand strong: thou didst hide thy face, and I was troubled.
I cried to thee, O LORD; and unto the LORD I made supplication.
What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise thee? shall it declare thy truth?
Hear, O LORD, and have mercy upon me: LORD, be thou my helper.
Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness;
To the end that my glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever.
Things are much better around here. Thank you so much for the caring comments and emails sent my way after my Easter post. I thought you’d be glad to hear that along with that HOPE, I’ve been feeling a little JOY and VICTORY in recent days.
More later. My computer is crippled and slow, and the days are just packed ~ no time for longer posts today. It’s planting season, you know! Today, our peas are in. How exciting is that?
I just might have to burn the midnight oil and post about our planting season. So exciting!
I love that passage.
I’m glad you feel better
