Daily Reflection
The author of this psalm is wrestling with two concepts: the brokenness and affliction in their life and the powerful love of God that will eventually restore all things. This is a struggle that is familiar to us all. If we are honest with ourselves, we are blatantly aware of the brokenness that permeates our lives. At the same time, we yearn for that restoration that God promises. What are the current pains, struggles, and afflictions of your life? What we do know is through the psalmist's example, we can tell all to the God. Though, we may feel the reality of our brokenness, the hope for the celebration of new life at Easter will not be far behind. And no matter how dark the night gets, Easter reminds us that new light is dawning... a new day has come. Brokenness is being done away with, healing and wholeness is being ushered in! This Lenten season pray that God will give you the boldness to come to him with everything and feel the yearning. Pray that God will usher in a renewed sense of hope in Easter the reality of what is to come.
