Personalities

Psalm 21[a]

For the director of music. A psalm of David.

1
The king rejoices in your strength, Lord.
How great is his joy in the victories you give!

2
You have granted him his heart’s desire
and have not withheld the request of his lips.[b]

3
You came to greet him with rich blessings
and placed a crown of pure gold on his head.

4
He asked you for life, and you gave it to him—
length of days, for ever and ever.

5
Through the victories you gave, his glory is great;
you have bestowed on him splendor and majesty.

6
Surely you have granted him unending blessings
and made him glad with the joy of your presence.

7
For the king trusts in the Lord;
through the unfailing love of the Most High
he will not be shaken.

8
Your hand will lay hold on all your enemies;
your right hand will seize your foes.

9
When you appear for battle,
you will burn them up as in a blazing furnace.
The Lord will swallow them up in his wrath,
and his fire will consume them.

10
You will destroy their descendants from the earth,
their posterity from mankind.

11
Though they plot evil against you
and devise wicked schemes, they cannot succeed.

12
You will make them turn their backs
when you aim at them with drawn bow.

13
Be exalted in your strength, Lord;
we will sing and praise your might.

Psalm 21:1 In Hebrew texts 21:1-13 is numbered 21:2-14.
Psalm 21:2 The Hebrew has Selah (a word of uncertain meaning) here.

Still getting used to this new Mac. It's driving me NUTS! Here is a story from 2021, about when bad things happen to good people.

Blue Hill Avenue, Dorchester, MA, was a very interesting place in the Mid-20th Century. On one side of the "Ave" lived a large population of Irish Catholics, so entrenched that if someone said they came from Dorchester, the correct response was "What Parish?"

The other side of the "Ave" was Boston's largest Jewish Neighborhood. Kosher Delis and Meat markets lined the "Ave", with Hebrew and Yiddish Newspapers filling the racks outside. My Dad's Barber and many other neighbors were Holocaust Survivors, and the horrors of WW2 were so recent that they were still a part of our lives.

One neighbor, a nice man who had lost his entire family in the camps, had made a new life for himself in America. He had a nice business, a new wife, and a new family. One day, he drove to pick up wife and kids at a store on the "Ave" where it bordered Milton. They had just gotten off the Trolley after a day of shopping in Boston. As he was approaching the sidewalk, another car came careening around the corner and crashed up onto the curb, killing the man's entire family right before his eyes.

The entire community, Irish and Jewish, grieved with this man. I remember it as if it happened yesterday, even though it was over 60 years ago. I was only 7 or 8, but I remember asking God WHY?

I am currently reading the Book of Job in my devotional Bible Readings. Job's "friends" are full of advice and philosophy, but they don't have a clue as to the depths of Job's suffering. It would have been better if they just grieved in silence WITH Job instead of questioning and accusing him. But that's just human nature, I guess.

Lately we've all seen some pretty horrible things. This past week has been particularly difficult. The 25th Anniversary of 9/11/01, the 1 year anniversary of the assassination of Charlie Kirk, and the Debacle at the Plymouth County Courthouse have all been traumatic for me. Then, to top it off, my old computer crashed and I've been trying to reconstruct everything on my new one.

Time to meditate on Psalm 21...The Victory Psalm!

Come and Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem, For Our FRiends in Need, For Persecuted Believers, and For Our Beloved Nation.
