Scripture of the Week

   Psalm 27

 1The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? 
 2When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell. 
 3Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident. 
 4One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple.  . . .

 11Teach me thy way, O LORD, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies. 
 12Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies: for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty. 
 13I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. 
 14Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.

I had been going to write some comments on these verses, but that seems pointless now. When you read these great passages from the Bible, you realise that there is nothing left to be said - it has already been written down in God's Word!
