I just got a phone call with bad news. I lost the judge that was assigned to the case, the good, fair, intelligent, reasonable judge. Now it is a crapshoot as to who will be assigned, and even if my case will be heard today or if it will be rescheduled yet again.
I cannot tell you how this has shaken my heart. How it has shaken my resolve and confidence and strength in facing this situation. How scared I am, and how hard I am trembling. Tears keep spilling out of my eyes and I can’t catch my breath. I am so desperate for God to intervene on my behalf in a miraculous and powerful way.
Last night I felt compelled to read Psalm 118. Now I understand why:
Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever. Let those who fear the Lord say: “His love endures forever.” In my anguish I cried to the lord, and he answered by setting me free. The Lord is with me; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me? The Lord is with me; he is my helper. I will look in triumph on my enemies. It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in man. It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in princes [or judges]. All the nations surrounded me, but in the name of the Lord I cut them off. They surrounded me on every side, but in the name of the Lord I cut them off. The swarmed around me like bees, but they died out as quickly as burning thorns; in the name of the Lord I cut them off. The Lord is my strength and my son; he has become my salvation. Shouts of joy and victory resound in the tents of the righteous: “The Lord’s right hand has done mighty things! The Lord’s right hand is lifted high; the Lord’s right hand has done mighty things.!” I will not die but live, and will proclaim what the Lord has done. The Lord has chastened me severely, but he has not given me over to death. Open for me the gates of righteousness; I will enter and give thanks to the Lord. I will give You thanks, for you answered me; you have become my salvation. The Lord has done this and it is marvelous in our eyes. This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it. O Lord, save us; O Lord, grant us success. The Lord is God, and he has made his light shine upon us. You are my God, and I will you thanks; you are my God and I will exalt you. Give thanks to the Lord for he is good; his love endures forever.
Truly, the Lord is with me; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me? The Lord is my helper, even when I am overwhelmed and surrounded on every side. And God can, and will, do mighty things on my behalf.
