Psalm 130

Psalm 130 
English Standard Version (ESV)

  Know what the depths are like?
  We all do.  We know the depths of pain and hurt and suffering, whether it's through the consequences of our own poor choices or the seemingly random pain that inflicts us from time to time.  Life challenges us at times, and there are moments when we feel like the walls are closing in and the darkness will overwhelm the light, and hope shall drown in our tears.
  In these depths, we cry out, and we wait.  We wait with hope, because just as surely as the dawn follows the night, the Lord our God will deliver us through his steadfast love into the life eternal.  With the same confidence that the sun will rise, we can face the challenges before us knowing that God will redeem us, that God's forgiveness and grace are greater than our sin, and that the love of Jesus Christ knows no bounds.

  May you fall into Christ's love today

  Two things --
  1)  I'll be taking next week off.  (Spring break!)
  2)  So I'm riding in an event in Columbus called Pelotonia.  It's a massive fundraiser to raise funds to cure cancer.  100% of funds raised goes towards ending this awful disease that has touched the lives of everyone.  I'd appreciate your support in this cause.  You can check out my profile here.
