Listen to Nick read the Firestarter and the Psalm.

For a video meditation on today’s Psalm created three years ago, Tap here.

One thing about David: he feels all the emotions. The personal vengeance that David wants to bring against his enemies is at the level of his feelings; he knows that vengeance is the Lord’s and that God will bring justice to bear.

Actually, that is the point of David’s anger. His deepest emotions have to do with the Lord’s honor and justice violated. In this respect, he is like Jesus. Christ’s anger comes out, not when something personal is done to him, but when his Father’s glory is at stake. Such was Jesus’s anger when he overturned the moneychangers in the Temple. The business of the world was profaning the Temple.

These days, may your anger be full and free when you see God’s glory diminished when one of God’s little ones is being abused. Then we need the energy of anger to address the sin.
