The Lord Is My Light Psalm 27:1 “The Lord is my light and my salvation — whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life — of whom shall I be afraid?” David didn’t write this from a comfortable place. He wrote it surrounded by enemies, with people actively trying to take his life. And yet his first words aren’t a cry for help. They’re a declaration of confidence. Asserting God as his strong foundation. That’s what faith actually looks like under pressure. Notice he doesn’t say “the Lord will be my light.” He says “the Lord is my light.” Present tense. Right now. In the middle of it not after it’s over. Most of us are waiting to feel safe before we declare God’s faithfulness. David declared it first and let the peace follow. Light does two things. It reveals what’s really there so you’re not afraid of shadows anymore. And it guides your next step, you don’t need to see the whole road, just enough to move forward. Maybe just enough light for today. Stronghold means a place of safety you run to not a feeling you wait for. David ran to God the way a soldier runs to a fortress. Deliberately. Urgently. Knowing that’s where protection is. If the God who created everything is your light, your salvation and your stronghold then nothing else can have a say. Reflect: Have you been fearful? What fear have you been carrying that this verse speaks directly to? Bring it to God today, out loud, specifically, by name.

I know that covering their head is a personal preference now but I have been wondering about this topic for a very long time. I was raised not to cover my head but as I have grown up my friends all cover their heads in mass, adoration, and even praying the rosary. So I started to cover my head but wanted to see everyone else's opinions on this topic.
