.. the God who loves me

My Strength, I play for you,
my citadel is God himself,
the God who loves me
(Psalm 60:17)
This verse is taken from one of the Psalms of 11th day. How beautiful and deep into the heart this prayer is, when St. David cried to the Lord with his whole being, ever trusting and contrite while spies were sent by king Saul to have him killed . He closed his prayer with a very beautiful praise out of his conviction, "the God who loves me."

May this become our prayer each time, especially in the world who hate us because we are Christ's. We walk with joy that cannot be shaken and courage from above. Let our thanks giving be overflowing, and we grow in awe before Him day after day, and even humbly we share this great love that we receive to others who are sent to us. Holy is the Lord!

My Strength, I play for you,
my citadel is God himself,
the God who loves me
(Psalm 60:17)
