Micah 7:8 Do not gloat over me, my enemies! For though I fall, I will rise again. Though I sit in darkness, the LORD himself will be my light. This verse is so full of hope! There’s sorrow, too. Micah doesn’t say,”if” I fall; he says “though”. Failure is inevitable because we are sinful. Darkness is inevitable because we are sinful. However, sin and darkness do not mean we are overcome and hopeless. We have the grace and mercy of Jesus Christ. Therefore, we will rise again. And though we sin and are so limited in our sight, the Lord himself will guide us and show us what is right! That is so awesome! God doesn’t send some angel or book or person to be our light. He does it Himself! That is very cool! However you want to look at this verse, it gives me hope that my mistakes aren’t the be-all and end-all. Though things seem dark right now and though I feel like I’ve fallen flat on my face, at the bottom of the barrel, there is light and there will come a time when I will rise and stand again. And considering how many people probably feel that way (especially with the economy in the condition its in), this should be a verse that we cling to and remember that God does not desert Him people. He Himself lights the way! Yeah God!
