The Grands Letter (Ps/GLJ)
Gene L. Jeffries, Th.D. on September 17, 2021 8:30 am (CST)Dear Grands,
Psalm 32:8-11, βI will instruct you and teach you in the way which you should go; I will counsel you with My eye upon you.
9 Do not be as the horse or as the mule which have no understanding, whose trappings include bit and bridle to hold them in check, otherwise they will not come near to you.
10 Many are the sorrows of the wicked, but he who trusts in the LORD, lovingkindness shall surround him.
11 Be glad in the LORD and rejoice, you righteous ones; and shout for joy, all you who are upright in heart.β
Which way do I go? Which way shall I turn? Whom shall I trust? There are multiple voices in todayβs world that purport to guide us, but which if any is the right voice? Yet, when the verse reads βI will counsel you with My eye upon you,β it is certain that the βeyeβ is not that of the mere human writer. Further, the instruction includes a warning that we are not to be as the animals that have no understanding within themselves. Could that Voice not be the Voice of Almighty God?
Who else knows of our sorrows? or the sorrows of the wicked that live among us? Who knows of the available trust that resides for us in the LORD? Who, other than the LORD, surrounds us with His love and mercy in our time of need?
βBe glad in the LORD,β the Scriptures say. Listen carefully to His counsel. Obey His instructions. He cares for us and has a wonderful plan for our lives!
Heartily in Christ Jesus,
(Dado III)
