"O Lord, how many are my foes! Many are rising up against me;
many are saying to me, 'There is no help for you in God'" (3:1)
As I read that it became pretty clear to me that in this journey I only have one real enemy and that's myself. I am my biggest foe. Oh, I'm sure those of you more devout than I will say it's the Evil One, but in truth... it's me.
I am the one is says "there is not help for you in God".
I am the one who says you have turned your back one too many times and there is no going back.
I am the one who subscribes to apostasy and believes it to be a valid concept and have convinced myself that perhaps, in my case, it has become irreversible.
There is so much in my own mind and heart that must find some since of relief or "reconciliation" that it seems almost an impossible task.
But wait...."Deliverance belongs to the LORD" the psalmist goes on to say. (v.8a) Could He...would He...should He?
Uhm.....if He were me, I know I wouldn't. But then I reckon it's a good thing He's not me.
Enemies?
Who needs enemies when you have a mirror.
