“THE NIGHT IS BRIGHT AS THE DAY!”

 Psalm 139:11-12                      (ESV)

    “[11] If I say, “Surely the darkness shall cover me,

        and the light about me be night,” 

    [12] even the darkness is not dark to YOU;

        “THE NIGHT IS BRIGHT AS THE DAY”,

        for darkness is as LIGHT with YOU.”

Even though I have been a BELIEVER since 1978, I still am not as strong a CHRISTIAN as I should be.  Don’t get me wrong, I’ve never had anyone murdered or slept with another man’s wife as the author of this Psalm, but I have never been called “a man after GOD’s OWN heart” (1 Samuel 13:14) by the Holy Spirit either!!!

With ALMIGHTY GOD in CONTROL, there is a calm assurance that “EVERYTHING WILL BE JUST FINE”!!  My wife told those caring for me during the Brain Hemorrhage almost 18 years ago that and she was quietly “scoffed” at!!  And even though I AM CHANGED, I AM JUST FINE!!

Psalms 139:12 plainly says “even the darkness is not dark to YOU; “THE NIGHT IS BRIGHT AS THE DAY”, for darkness is as LIGHT with YOU”! HE SEES our future in a TOTALLY DIFFERENT LIGHT than what humanity has the capability of seeing!  HE IS GOD, and we ARE NOT!  HE isn’t fazed by the trials and hardships that HE uses to mold us into HIS IMAGE. HE lovingly moves us through EVEN the darkest times and into HIS MARVELOUS LIGHT!!!

Don’t be swayed by a storm of darkness that may be in our future!  GOD is in control of EVERYTHING and HE can SEE that “THE NIGHT IS BRIGHT AS THE DAY”!!!  Our FAITH needs to reflect that HE IS IN CONTROL……not us!!!
