Well, my knees are recovering from acupuncture. Now, my lower back decided to join in the pain. I am able to write to you today with a tight lower back.
David is praising his Lord in verses 12 & 13. He exclaims, "I will praise you, Lord my God, with all my heart; I will glorify your name forever. For great is your love toward me; you have delivered me from the depths, from the realm of the dead."
An observation I have become aware of in David's writings is his emotional journey with the Lord. Verse 12, David is praising the Lord with all his heart. He wants to glorify the Lord's name forever! I have had days where I felt exactly the same! Have you experienced days in your life when you praised the Lord all day long?
In verse 13, I get an expression that David is shouting to the Lord! "For great is your love toward me; you have delivered me from the depths, from the realm of the dead." I know this feeling very well. Having cancer was extremely difficult. However, the cancer treatments was almost killed me three times. Twice in Abilene, Texas and once in La Jolla, California. Each time my heart rate dropped into the thirties. My normal heart rate is between fifty five to sixty two. All three times I was rushed into the Cardiac Unit. Praise God that I recovered quickly! I know David's declaration of being saved from "the realm of the dead." I hope and pray that you have not had a near death experience. If you have gone through it, then you know why David is shouting verse 13!
I appreciate all of you who read my blog!
I am HIS,
David Walter Wiseman
