Psalm 112 is a “glass half-full” psalm. I may also call it a “sunny side-up” psalm. The psalmist portrays the life of a believer as always hopeful regardless of the situation they may find themselves. Their confidence in what the LORD can and will do helps them to be a light to others.

We can demonstrate this by sharing true and encouraging words with people who are struggling, we can pray for those who need healing, we can give to those who need help. We can speak of a future that includes God’s mercy and faithfulness. We know we are not alone. Our traveling partner has every resource we could ever need.

Light shines in the darkness for good people, for those who are merciful, kind, and just. Psalm 112:4

See you tomorrow for Psalm 113.
