The Lord Is My Light

Psalm 27:1

David asks a rhetorical question: the Lord is his light and salvation, so whom shall he fear? The Lord is the stronghold of his life — of whom shall he be afraid?

Let God define your fear, not circumstances.

If He's your light, darkness doesn't get the final say.

Ask David's question of yourself.

Whom shall you fear, really, if the Lord is your stronghold?

Let light expose what darkness hides.

Fear often thrives in vague, unexamined places. Light clarifies.

Trust the stronghold, not your own defenses.

David isn't relying on his own strength here. Neither should you.

Walk boldly because of who holds you.

Confidence here isn't arrogance — it's rooted in whose you are.

Dad Takeaway: If the Lord is your light, you don't have to live afraid of the dark.
