Thou art a shield...
I haven't blogged anything about the Westgate attack in the past week.
I think I was looking for the right words. How to express my condolences and try
to comfort all those who were affected. How to explain the pride I feel when I open
my wallet and spot my national ID: the one that says Kenyan. How to tell you that
through every day as we were praying I always had faith in God, and I knew that
the whole nightmare would end. Yeah, those are a lot of things to try and put into
words. But if you're reading this, and you need a little encouragement, I'll leave
you with this:
Psalm 3:1-8 NKJV
Lord, how they have increased who trouble me!
Many are they who rise up against me.
2 Many are they who say of me,
“There is no help for him in God.” Selah
Many are they who rise up against me.
2 Many are they who say of me,
“There is no help for him in God.” Selah
3 But You, O Lord, are a shield for me,
my glory and the One who lifts up my head.
4 I cried to the Lord with my voice,
And He heard me from His holy hill. Selah
my glory and the One who lifts up my head.
4 I cried to the Lord with my voice,
And He heard me from His holy hill. Selah
5 I lay down and slept;
I awoke, for the Lord sustained me.
6 I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people
who have set themselves against me all around.
I awoke, for the Lord sustained me.
6 I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people
who have set themselves against me all around.
7 Arise, O Lord;
Save me, O my God!
For you have struck all my enemies on the cheekbone;
you have broken the teeth of the ungodly.
8 Salvation belongs to the Lord.
Your blessing is upon your people. Selah
