Introduction

The psalmist seeks God’s help day and night. He relies on the Law for courage and safety. Yet he is still oppressed by people in power. The psalmist puts his hope and his trust in God, and continues to praise God even in the midst of trouble. He relies on God’s forgiveness and trusts in God’s love.

Today’s Scripture: Psalm 119:151

You are near to me, LORD, and all your commands are permanent.
