Psalm 4
A Psalm of David.
Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness!
You have given me relief when I was in distress.
Be gracious to me and hear my prayer!
2 O men, how long shall my honor be turned into shame?
How long will you love vain words and seek after lies?
Selah
Selah
3 But know that the Lord has set apart the godly for himself;
the Lord hears when I call to him.
4 Be angry, and do not sin;
ponder in your own hearts on your beds, and be silent. Selah
5 Offer right sacrifices,
and put your trust in the Lord.
6 There are many who say, “Who will show us some good?
Lift up the light of your face upon us, O Lord!”
7 You have put more joy in my heart
than they have when their grain and wine abound.
8 In peace I will both lie down and sleep;
for you alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety.
Labels and extremes.
Words are sometimes turned inside out. Offering little in the way of a safe label. It's hard to find the safe, neutral middle ground. My father used to say, "Nothing is fair."
Words change meanings - therefore - I've noticed during this year, we don't dress outside our comfort level. During the Pandemic, people laughed and asked if you were wearing pants/trousers for Zoom. Footwear is only about comfort.
Comfort.
Will we argue the right of someone to take over federal buildings and then say Federal Action is unnecessary? Do we believe the building will be returned in good and fair shape? If we have riots for a month, do we anticipate the police are well rested and encouraged in their work? And why wouldn't we want the National Guard or Federal Employees we all see on Police TV shows - to give law and order support?
How will we avoid stereotypes and opinions to find Expectations of Goodness?
This in a year of Avalanche in Information, with massive data, information overload and a literal Avalanche of Changing Data and Opinion on a world basis? Our facts are changing because the data is so observed in a critical time - with changing information.
When we need a compass, when we have put 10 million opinions and facts from social media ideas, television, opinions and conversations?
We believe with our hearts, confess with our mouths and give what God has put in us in our words, deeds and actions.
