Psalms invite us to become like the well-watered tree, with roots going deep into God's word, bringing forth abundant fruit. In Psalm 27, David is tempted - as many of us are - to judge God's character based on his circumstances. We often tie our joy to having life go a certain way for us, using God as a means to a life under control. But David rejoices because he doesn't need control, for God is great and sovereign, in the midst of chaos.
