Psalms 27

this is a rather long passage...one of the verse is actually the focal point for TnT this year..

but today as i read again...
i came upon this word and it comforted me...

v.10 though my father and mother forsake me,
but the Lord will receive me...

how many people today actually felt so rejected...
rejected by parents, siblings, relatives, friends, boss, etc..
the list just goes on..
rejection is such a real issue today...and many people are reacting towards to 'phenomenon'..
but they they don't have answer, no way out..

David, a guy who is so so famous...
in his time, in history, in our time..
was rejected also...
when i preach about David, i saw that in the record...
when Samuel came and anoint the new king...
David's father called all the brothers to come...
except David...
but the Lord never forgets him...well, it was a good ending...
David was anointed and eventually became king...
this is what he said, "the Lord receive me..."

Yes, God our Father receives us...
He accepts us as who we are, the way we are...

In conclusion, David said the following...
wait for the Lord, be strong and take heart...
and wait for the Lord...and at this point, i happened to listen to this song...
~ strength will rise as we wait upon the Lord...

Yes Lord, I'll wait for You...
the man who killed giant waited for Him..
why be hasty when God ask us to wait?

And i shall also be confident of this...

I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of living..

yup.. while i am alive, my life will be filled with his goodness :)
