Psalms 32:10
Many are the sorrows of the wicked,
but steadfast love surrounds the one who trusts in the Lord.
Tag: We Are Surrounded
When we look around us we can see many dangers and perils. We can see a government bent upon consuming itself. We can see a world headed for hatred, if not all ready there. We can see a creation waxing old and unreliable. But, for believers, what we can’t always see is the truth in the above verse. Those who do not trust in God will, at one point, be surrounded with sorrow. When death comes upon them they have no hope. When sickness engulfs them they have no hope. When crisis lays hold of them they have no hope. But, with the one who trusts in God, the story is different. Those who put their trust in God are surrounded by “steadfast love.” Note what David said just a few verses earlier in this song:
Psalms 32:6-7
Therefore let everyone who is godly
offer prayer to you at a time when you may be found;
surely in the rush of great waters,
they shall not reach him.
You are a hiding place for me;
you preserve me from trouble;
you surround me with shouts of deliverance. Selah
God surrounds us with “shouts of deliverance” and with “steadfast love.” We can know we are safe and secure in the arms of God even if the entire world deserts us. We are surrounded ... by His great love that never fails!!! REJOICE!!!
