Liberating Light

Read:  Psalm 112 / Proverbs 8 / Job 13 /Matthew 8

 

Psalm 112:4 ~ Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness: he is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.

Proverbs 8:35 ~ For whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain favor of the LORD.

Job 13:15,16 ~ Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him... He also shall be my salvation.

Matthew 8:26 ~ And he saith unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.

 

Amid the darkness, rises light

That mocks the grave with liberation: 

O Death, where is your boasted might?

O Grave, where is your celebration? 

 

This liberating light displayed

Is found in Christ our risen Savior

Who tells us not to be afraid,

Since we are sheltered by His favor.
