Joy Comes in the Morning

Lady of Light

No matter what we go through in life, it is important to keep a biblical perspective on it. In Psalm 30:4-5, it tells us to sing to the Lord and it tells us why:

"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."

David went through his share of suffering but, as he is known as a man after God's own heart, he always kept a proper focus on the goodness of God. In a world wracked with sin, we should definitely be glad and not forget that God is holy. He is life-giving and even though we may cry sometimes, our joy will return in the morning.

In verse 6, David says:

"And in my prosperity, I shall never be moved."

This is a good reminder for us that when things are going well, stay close to the Lord - when you are blessed and prosperous, it shouldn't alter or change the dependency and closeness that you have with the Lord. We all know to go to the Lord when we are hurting or have problems, but David stayed the same no matter what was going on in his life.

I hope that the holiness and goodness of God sustains you and that God continues to bless you.

Have a great day!

God bless you!
