...I am poor and needy; yet the Lord thinks upon me. You are my help and my deliverer; do not delay, O my God. Ps 40:17
I really like the 40th Psalm. I like to be reminded that He thinks about me. Me. Me? Yeah, me. You, too.
He also brought me up out of a horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my steps. (vs 2)
Ah, yes! I just love knowing He is my deliverer and He takes my hand and lifts me from the horrible pit of self loathing and gluttony, and not only puts me on solid ground away from sinking sand, but he also sets up my path in a firm and permanent fashion.
Trust...I simply must learn to trust Him.
Oh, taste and see that the LORD is good; blessed is the man (or blessed am I) who trusts in Him! Ps 34:8
It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man (or myself). Ps 118:8
Just one more:
PS 143:8 Cause me to hear Your lovingkindness in the morning, for in You do I trust; cause me to know the way in which I should walk, for I lift up my soul to You.

ReplyDeleteI like when Scripture talks to us like this, giving us hope, comfort, peace, etc. Another great batch to post places to remember and think about them during the day :)
