Psalm 35

Not to be too short- but this is another "God vindicate me and wipe out my enemies" psalm. That's not a bad thing, because it reminds us that we all get frustrated and want God to act. And it reminds us that it's OK to ask God to "Awake and rise to my defense!"

I want God to act. I mean, really badly. As I take stock of my life today, and there's been a lot of that- I've prayed something similar: "God, I need you to show up."

I'm not under attack, and I'm not even really frustrated- but I am excited. Nevertheless, I need God to show up. I look at the things that need to happen, the possibilities of what could happen, the time it will take to see said things accomplished- and I realize it is beyond me and my abilities.

Perhaps that is why I feel a peace beneath the overwhelming weight of things. I know God is there. I know He is capable.

I know He will show up.
