No wonder I’m tripping up all the time.

November 21, Psalm 3:3

“But you, God, shield me on all sides; You ground my feet, you lift my head high; With all my might I shout up to God, His answers thunder from the holy mountain.”

Psalm 3:3 MSG – A verse of the day from the Bible presented in Eugene Peterson’s contemporary version called The Message. Accompanied by a personal reflection below.

David is fierce in his trust in God’s provision and protection to him. There is physical protection that he speaks of in this verse — shielding him on all sides, grounding his feet, lifting his head high. This is a God who cares about all aspects of our being — our physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. May it be that we never fail to remember this.

“Or is all your lore not to call November November…”

The Thrush by Edward Thomas

When Winter’s ahead,

What can you read in November

That you read in April

When Winter’s dead?

I hear the thrush, and I see

Him alone at the end of the lane

Near the bare poplar’s tip,

Singing continuously.

Is it more that you know

Than that, even as in April,

So in November,

Winter is gone that must go?

Or is all your lore

Not to call November November,

And April April,

And Winter Winter—no more?

But I know the months all,

And their sweet names, April,

May and June and October,

As you call and call

I must remember

What died into April

And consider what will be born

Of a fair November;

And April I love for what

It was born of, and November

For what it will die in,

What they are and what they are not,

While you love what is kind,

What you can sing in

And love and forget in

All that’s ahead and behind.
