Psalm 38-44
Humans in despair is the theme of
today’s Psalms. In the middle of
all this misery we read this verse:
“Deep
calls to deep at the
sound
of Thy waterfalls.”
Psalm
42:7a
There are times in life when
nature gives us a glimpse of what I call “the Realm of the Almighty.” The “deep” calls to our “deep” and
suddenly we are aware of The Great I AM.
In this Psalm a waterfall brings it to David. With us it might be sitting on a parched porch and hearing a
summer rain come marching through the forest or maybe a snow filled mountain
valley with a small sapphire lake set there. It is there and gone in an instant and leaves us with a deep
scar of joy. It is a physical
weight of painful ecstasy that we know speaks of Eden, of a manger, of a Hill called
Calvary and of a Homecoming.
The deep color green of my forest shrouded in mist let me peek this
morning.
