I Call To God, And The
LORD Saves Me
But
I call to God, and the LORD saves me.
Evening,
morning and
He
ransoms me unharmed from the battle waged against me, even though many oppose
me.
God,
who is enthroned forever, will hear them and afflict them —
Selah men who never change their ways and have no
fear of God.
My
companion attacks his friends; he violates his covenant.
His
speech is smooth as butter, yet war is in his heart; his words are more soothing
than oil, yet they are drawn swords.
Cast
your cares on the LORD and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous
fall.
But
you, O God, will bring down the wicked into the pit of corruption; bloodthirsty
and deceitful men will not live out half their days. But as for me, I trust in
you.
Psalm 55:16-23
When
we pray, do we ever get the feeling that God is not there, or is not listening?
Remember, God will answer in His way in His time, and that His answer may not
always be what we were looking for, but it will be in time for us.
He
hears us. He cares about us.
God is always available to hear the prayer of His child.
