For the director of music. Of David.
1 In the LORD I take refuge. How then can you say to me: "Flee like a bird to your mountain.
2 For look, the wicked bend their bows;they set their arrows against the strings
to shoot from the shadows at the upright in heart.
3 When the foundations are being destroyed, what can the righteous do [a] "
4 The LORD is in his holy temple;the LORD is on his heavenly throne. He observes the sons of men;his eyes examine them.
5 The LORD examines the righteous, but the wicked [b] and those who love violence his soul hates.
6 On the wicked he will rain fiery coals and burning sulfur; a scorching wind will be their lot.
7 For the LORD is righteous, he loves justice; upright men will see his face.
Chin Ling: As I read this psalm, the Lord asked me a question, "Which side are you on?" . I am reminded that yes, My God is an extreme God. He is a God that does not sit on the fence, and so, I must be a daughter that does not sit on the fence. To the righteous, he protects and blesses abundantly, but the wicked, the Lord will bring his due consequences. I want to stand firm and stand on God's side because he is the safest refuge. Amen!
Huijuan: God is reminding me to have Him in my heart, so often i can miss him in every day my life. God help me to remember u.

Sara: Hehe… when I read this psalm, I was just awed at his intimate relationship with God. How much he shares with God what's on his mind & in his heart, and how much He knows the Lord's heart. I yearn to have such a r/s with Him as well!
Pam: I am assured to know that He will see me thr difficult times. He is a just God and there is nothing i shld be fearful of! Hahaha... must believe n act on it!!!!!
Joanna: When I have been reading these few psalms, God has been bringing me to sing praises to him. Every Psalm has also mentioned how righteous our God is. God does not like the wayward and evil, but supports the righteous. God is also reminding me to stay firm in His word n not sway to the things in this world.
