Suddenly, God, your light floods my path,
God drives out the darkness.
I smash the bands of marauders, I vault the high fences.
What a God!
His road stretches straight and smooth.
Every God-direction is road-tested.
Everyone who runs toward him
Makes it.
~2 Samuel 22:29-31 (MSG)
Still running,
Sandy
Thank you, Alison, for sharing about this in the comments below!
LOVE that car! And LOVE The Message …
Sandra – may your Sabbath be blessed with sweet rest!
Isn’t it fun? The car and the words…
A beautiful Sunday to you, Linda.
Wow! Enjoyed this updated translation of David’s song of deliverance. It is striking when put into modern day images.
Have a blessed weekend.
I love how the Message gives us new ways to think…
Hi Sandra! Happy New Year! Have you ever heard Alvin Slaughter’s reading of that passage from The Message? It’s at the end of his recording of Hillsong’s “Run To You.” Just beautiful. Check it out on YouTube when you get a moment.
That’s awesome, Alison. I hadn’t heard it. Thank you!
I’ll embed it above.
‘Everyone who runs towards him, makes it.’
What a comforting word.
‘Still running.’
What an encouraging word.
Thank you for comfort and encouragement this early Sunday morning. I needed both.

“I smash the bands of marauders, I vault the high fences.” What awesome encouragement. That and ” Everyone who runs toward him Makes it.”
Have a wonderful Sunday, dear friend. xox
So now I’m picturing you vaulting those fences! 🙂
Sending love.
Beautiful words and photos. Thank you for the encouragement!
I’m visiting from your link-up at Weekend Brew.
Wonderful : Every God-direction is road-tested!
Thank you for sharing this – I need to write this verse on our frinde door to remind us of this each morning!
Blessings to your week, Sandy!
Unique take on this psalm – loved the pictures to illustrate!!
