DAY AND NIGHT
Today's reading: Psalm 42-44

"By day the LORD directs his love, at night his song is with me-- a prayer to the God of my life." Psalm 42:8 NIV

I believe we all see God's love for us during the day.

In the faces of loved ones. By the way He decorates the world with beauty. In feeling our pulse and drawing breath into our lungs. By playing roles in the miracles He does on a daily basis.

At night, it's always a little harder to see.

Our vision is limited. Our focus is less clear. What we can see is decreased. Scary things lurk when the sun is hidden from our sight.

Things are usually a little harder to deal with when it's dark.

Satan knows that.

Satan fills our mind, rattles our faith and brings forth accusations and doubts more often as we're trying to sleep than anytime during the day.

But, as this verse tells us, we can have His song in our heart.

We praise Him whether we can see Him or not.

We can remind satan, and ourselves, of the mighty God we serve.

We can pull those Bible verses from memory-you do have a few memorized for such occasions, don't you?

Even at night. Especially at night. Most certainly at night.
