Psalms 144:9-10 CEB
[9] I will sing a new song to you, God. 
I will sing praises to you on a ten-stringed harp,  [10] to you - the one who gives saving help to rulers, and who rescues his servant David from the evil sword.
Psalms 144:9-10 CEB
In the middle of David's psalm, sandwiched between his expression of his problems and his hope for the future is "I will sing a new song to You, God".
Not many of us can write songs, but all of us can express to God our hopes, our fears, our loves, our losses, and our faith in Him.
Sandwiched between our problems of today and our hopes for the future is our here-and-now, a today to be lived. 
In today, what is the song you want to write to our God?
What is going on in you that you want to tell Him, share with Him?
David's psalm is an invitation to write our song, our psalm, our few perhaps faltering words, perhaps just one word or two today...
Perhaps in the writing, the humming, the singing, a new song will emerge, a glimpse of something new, a shift...
Write your own song.

Joseph replied..."Dont you see, you planned evil against me but God used those same plans for my good, as you see all around you right now - life for many people..." Genesis 50:19-20 MSG The view from the drone. The different perspective. "God has been at work in my life despite, in fact within the hatred that you had towards me. Even though I couldn't always see it, I kept trusting Him, even when He was silent, when all hope seemed lost... God was at work... Can you see that now?" #faith #faithinthedark
Genesis 15.8-18.ESV But he said O Lord God , how am I to know that I shall possess it? ...When the sun had gone down and it was dark, behold, a smoking fire pot and a flaming torch passed between these pieces. On that day the Lord made a covenant with Abram... March 15 was the last day we looked at Abram's story...he was questioning God and this is God's response...sacrifices and smoke and fire and a covenant...a promise... Isn't that what we crave for sometimes? God, if only you'd just show me smoke & fire, a burning bush a sign, miracle, healing...then all my questions would disappear...all my doubts would be gone... 2moro we'll see Abram's response but I think God values our faith in spite of our questions and doubts. That we choose Him anyway #faith
Psalm 42.1-11.nlt As the deer longs for streams of water, so I long for you, O God... I thirst for God, the living God. When can I go and stand before him? O God my rock l cry, Why have you forgotten me? Why must I wander around in grief, oppressed by my enemies? Their taunts break my bones. They scoff, Where is this God of yours? Why am I discouraged? Why is my heart so sad? I will put my hope in God! I will praise him again - my Savior and my God! That song "as the deer pants for the water..." seems almost nice, but it's not...it's part of a cry of anguish, of hurt, of despair...of God not giving an answer...yet...through all that...again and again he says I'll put my hope in God! #choose #hope #hopeunshaken
