Holding my Head Up – Lectio Divina

By

But you, O Lord, are a shield around me; 
you are my glory, the one who holds my head high. Psalm 3:3 (NLT)

The one who holds my head high

Yes, hold my head up, Lord
I walk around with my head lowered in shame
   My head heavy with shame from my sins and failure to obey.
Lowering my head in humble realization who I am and who You really are.
My chin touching my chest aching with battle fatigue from the world’s demands.
Bu You, Lord, rescue me.
You come to me –
    You wrapped your loving arms around me
         You provide strength and protection
               You hold my head up high.
You tell me don’t be ashamed.
You reassure me I am Your child
And nothing will come between us.
Not by my strength
   Not by my power,
      Not by my will
         But You,
           Only You.
You, Lord, hold my head high as a child of God.
