Our text this morning makes us wonder if the writer is in his right mind. We find a man who is not deluded in his thoughts, but he speaks a word of wisdom about something he has discovered amid his misery. He has a revelation of understanding about something that changes everything. He realizes a grit and determination about himself that gives him optimism and hope. In the first part, he catalogs a grim picture of desolation and ruin, but he declares that life will not silence his song of praise to God in the second part. Habakkuk’s outlining the problems was the background. It was not the purpose of what he had to say but a way to set the context for his later statements. Too many are hung up on the “although” in life and not the “Yet I will rejoice in the Lord” part. Something happened in Habakkuk’s life that moved the problems and strife in life to the background to make room for the praise despite the storm raging around. Despite all the bleakness of the citation, here stands a singer raising his voice to God in praise. We will face some things in our journey to a song that we do not expect The way through doubt is to walk by faith. Faith is the Path To Praise.
