Strangers & Servants (Psalm 119:17-24)

Be sure to leave Walk Talks a review and connect with Micah Herbster by emailing [email protected].//Micah is joined by his brother, Malachi Herbster, to walk through the third stanza of Psalm 119. This passage is framed by the psalmist’s identity as a servant of God—an identity that brings both confidence and conflict. Surrounded by opposition and hardship, the psalmist finds rest in knowing he lives for God, not for himself. Ironically, it is his faithfulness to God’s Word that stirs up the very trouble he faces.What about us? When the blessed way collides with the popular way, will we bend? Or, like the psalmist, will we remain steadfast—choosing the blessed way, even as strangers in this world?
