“I love you, O Lord, my strength. The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer, my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.
I call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised, and I am saved from my enemies.The cords of death encompassed me; the torrents of destruction assailed me;
the cords of Sheol entangled me; the snares of death confronted me.In my distress I called upon the Lord; to my God I cried for help.
From his temple he heard my voice, and my cry to him reached his ears.”
~ Psalm 18:1-6 (ESV)
There is nothing more comforting to know that I can open up my Bible and find comfort in His Word. My friend, Laurel at Laurel Wreath is hosting this week “In Other Words”. Laurel picked a quote that refers to reading the Bible…
Blessings on you Sunday and as always…
This scripture is comforting but it also reminds me that our Lord suffered death for me, but then rose again. Wonderful.
Oh you are making me miss home with that picture girl, we only have “hills” here! Beautiful bible verse! Have a great day.
I LOVE this Psalm. I have read it many times through my journey through this kidney issue. You are so right. It is very comforting to know that we can always go to His word for comfort. Have an awesome weekend 🙂
Just stopping by to say hello and to let you know I always enjoy your photos and this was just such perfect scripture. I haven’t participated in In Other Words for awhile….you know me and those commitment issues 😉
God’s word is indeed a wonderful comfort. I’ve never found a time when my bible wasn’t “there” for me or when it (God) was too busy to “speak” to me. 🙂 Thanks for this reminder today!
