A Reflection on Psalm 138

May 30, 2016 by Chris Gribble

138

When I was inundated with angry words,
My God was with me,
Even though I gave up on myself,
He saw new possibilities,
Transformation was on his mind,
Born from despair, destruction and betrayal.

Doubt was completely dispelled,
About who won this fight,
My broken heart a witness to eternity’s love,
That sought out my every weakness,
Nothing was hidden from His gaze,
My deepest humiliation transformed by hope.

My life is completed by thankfulness,
Eternity’s faithfulness in my deepest darkness,
Demonstrating who is in charge,
Love creates the great reversal,
Of the winner in the world’s clamour for more,
No one will escape love’s call,
Reaching out and restoring the broken,
The world a witness to love’s final truth.
