Day 493 - Psalms : Chapter 16

Psalm 16 : Confidence in the Lord

Yesterday was a great day. It was a special anniversary for me and Pinks. It was made memorable by dining with some extraordinary folks. Thanks for the blessing Lord. The event changed our lives.

Today's Psalm says that confidence in the Lord would give us everything that we need. When God is with us, nothing can shake us.

16:1   Protect me, O God; I trust in you for safety.

16:2   I say to the LORD, "You are my Lord; all the good things I have come from you."

16:3   How excellent are the LORD's faithful people! My greatest pleasure is to be with them.

16:4   Those who rush to other gods bring many troubles on themselves. I will not take part in their sacrifices; I will not worship their gods.

16:5   You, LORD, are all I have, and you give me all I need; my future is in your hands.

16:6   How wonderful are your gifts to me; how good they are!

16:7   I praise the LORD, because he guides me, and in the night my conscience warns me.

16:8   I am always aware of the LORD's presence; he is near, and nothing can shake me.

16:9   And so I am thankful and glad, and I feel completely secure,

16:10   because you protect me from the power of death. I have served you faithfully, and you will not abandon me to the world of the dead.

16:11   You will show me the path that leads to life; your presence fills me with joy and brings me pleasure forever.
