Eugene Peterson applies years of experience and pastoral training to capture the essence of Psalm 91 in the Message Bible and it has been very encouraging today — take a moment to absorb it.
If you’ll hold on to me for dear life,” says God,
I’ll get you out of any trouble.
I’ll give you the best of care if you’ll only get to know and trust me
Call me and I’ll answer, be at your side in bad times;
I’ll rescue you, then throw you a party.”
— Psalm 91:14-16 (Message Bible)

The way a day turns out is often different than the way it feels facing it.
And that’s a good thing!
“Instead of worrying, pray… It’s wonderful what happens when Christ displaces worry at the center of your life.” — Philippians 4:6-7 (Message)

I think there are three kinds of tears:
I’m not convinced the third can be experienced without the first two, but I am convinced if we seek Him with the first we’ll find the others soon after.
“…weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.” — Psalm 30:5b
