As we set off for Malawi the weather here at home is truly miserable, cold and wet – normal summer service has resumed π
By contrast, the prospect is for brighter days ahead. Reminds me of the Christians great prospect of a never-ending day of glory.
I enjoyed (again) a little verse from the Book of Proverbs this morning, which seems appropriate just now, “But the path of the just is like the shining sun, That shines ever brighter unto the perfect day.” Proverbs 4:18 NKJV

Watchful eyes and open ears!
βThe eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous,
And his ears are open unto their cry.β Psalm 34:15
Frankly, I find the context of this Psalm a bit difficult to comprehend – the title tells us that it was when David “changed his behavior before Abimelech” – a euphemistic way of saying that he acted like a raving madman in order to convince his enemies that he was no threat to them, thus escaping the very imminent danger facing him.
Hardly the behavior of a man trusting in his God – the dignified manner in which we might expect a king in waiting to behave! But then, how often do we act in self-reliance, how often fail to behave as sons of the King?
