Today's verse is Psalm 26:3
For thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes:
And I have walked in thy truth.
In the verse above we see both a statement of purpose, and a statement of observation. David in this psalm, recognizes what happens when we fail to see God’s lovingkindnesses, of the wickedness which lieth at the door. But if we set our eyes upon the Lord our God and keep in remembrance of the Good things he has done for us, whether it was five minutes ago, or years beyond recall. For have we not seen God work openly and covertly in scripture? Do we not see in Joseph or Esther, how God is working his will in the background? Do we not see the Children of Israel as they leave Egypt, forget time and again what God did yesterday? Forgetting that God foretold them what to expect? Even as it happened just as he said! So, as the world crumbles about us, we can be sure that God is in Control, and what he said, he will do, but we need to remember his lovingkindness to us, and to keep his truth [Yea, even The Truth] before our eyes. Amen.
To God be the Glory
