“From Zion, perfect in beauty, God shines
forth.
Our God comes and will not be silent.” – Psalm 50:2-3
Our God comes and will not be silent.” – Psalm 50:2-3
There can be few great sights than to watch
the glorious sunshine break through the gloom of the storm clouds. I find it
life-giving and extremely hopeful to see the sunlight push back the grey army
of clouds. If you are blessed to witness this, you will notice how your mood
changes and you suddenly feel more alive.
Asaph, who was one of David’s chief
musicians, creates this same picture in our minds, as he reminds us that ‘in
perfect beauty, God shines forth.’ We could put this another way – Nothing can
hold God back! There is nothing in all creation that can contain the Light of
Jesus and God will have the final word.
If you are feeling as if the clouds have
gathered around you and that you are feeling a little strangled by your current
situation, then I encourage you to remember the good news from today’s verse.
Our God comes…
Our God will not remain silent!
Reflection: Picture your current situation
as clouds in the sky – how many clouds are there and how dark are they? Now
picture the glory of Jesus Christ shining into those situations and ask God to
shed light on your way.
