[By Seh-Hwa Park]
Day 9 - “The Lord delights in those who fear Him; who put their hope in Him unfailing love.” Psalm 147:11
To fear him is to know what an almighty God He is - the God who created the universe, the heaven and the earth. He set the boundaries of the sea and land. He makes sure there is 24 hours in a day. And He holds everything - including the pandemic and the war - in His hands.
That same God gives us new mercy every morning. Digs deep into our hearts to whisper a love song to call us His children. So in God we put our hope because the Lord is a friend and a father who also holds each of us in His hands - in times of worry, in times of joy, and in times of deep despair.
And in that posture of humility, God is delighted.
