"Oh send out thy light and thy truth;

let them lead me,
let them bring me to thy holy hill

and to thy dwelling!" Psalm 43:3 (RSVCE)

Meditation: Lord, with your light guiding my feet, I will be a path of life to everyone.

"But thou hast saved us from our foes,
and hast put to confusion those who hate us." Psalm 44:7 (RSVCE)

Meditation: David defeated Goliath not with human strength and sword, but with five stones and a sling shot and the power of God.

"Thou hast made us turn back from the foe;
and our enemies have gotten spoil." Psalm 44:10 (RSVCE)

Meditation: I know, Lord, that you must chastise us to draw us back to you. Yet, even were I stripped of all enjoyment and encouragement, I would still cling to you for yourself.

"For our soul is bowed down to the dust;
our body cleaves to the ground." Psalm 44:25 (RSVCE)

Meditation: Lord, even prostrate in the dust, if I turn my face toward heaven, I will see your strong right arm reaching down to bring me to my feet. No matter how bad things become, I know that you make everything in the end work together for the good.
