Psalms 4:6
There be many that say, Who will shew us any good? Adonai, lift thou up the light of Thy countenance upon us.
Does the screaming of our skeptic world seem to be getting so loud that it covers the voice of God? Does the voice of certainty of God’s care also seem to be fading among believers, thus giving way to doubt and self-reliance? Could these be signs of the great apostasy spoken of by the Apostle Paul?
Such times when public opinion mocks and ridicules the person of faith are not times for us to heed their criticisms. Such times are rather for us draw even closer to God, to let His countenance shine upon us. This darkness will only make His Light shine brighter.
As we look upon Him, our countenance is lifted. As we meditate upon His gracious love and abundant care, our faith in Him grows. As we focus our face on His, the sun rises on our world of darkness and worry. As we hear His songs of comforting reassurance, the voice of the world is drowns to insignificance. His countenance is always lifted upon us; it is His promise. We are the ones who need to turn ours towards His.
