DAILY READINGS: Judges 16; Isaiah 35; 1 Corinthians 13
Be Thou my strong habitation, whereunto I may continually resort: Thou hast given commandment to save me; for Thou art my rock and my fortress. Psalm 71:3
Thou art my hope, O Lord God: Thou art my trust from my youth.
Psalm 71:5
Thou art my strong refuge. Psalm 71:7a
The psalmist was well fortified. His fortress, hope, trust, and refuge were all in the Lord. No wonder he begins this psalm saying, “In Thee, O Lord, do I put my trust.” The psalmist’s God is our God. You can find in Him daily the same resources that sustained the psalmist long ago; for He changeth not. —Doug Kazen
Simply trusting Thee, Lord Jesus, I behold Thee as Thou art,
And Thy love, so pure, so changeless, satisfies my heart. —Jean Pigott
