My Hope Is In Him Because He Is A Personal God

Psalm 8:3–4---When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;

What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?

When have you been most aware of God’s presence with you? Of His power and His love? Of the hope and strength, you can find in Him? How did you respond? Did you respond with thanksgiving and joy? David was a songwriter throughout his life. He wrote psalms when he was a shepherd boy gazing at the billions of stars God created, when he was a successful warrior being chased down by jealous Saul, and when he was the king of Israel. The songs of David and the other psalmists express a personal, intimate relationship with God, the kind of relationship that can be yours as well if it isn’t already. Like a shepherd, the Lord longs to protect you, provide for you, guide you, rescue you, and comfort you, so that, like David, you can proclaim, The Lord is my shepherd, I Shall Not Want.  Psalm 23:1 our good Shepherd longs to have His Goodness and mercy shall… follow [us] all the days of [our] life. — Psalm 23:6 what a blessing! I believe God is involved in and cares about my daily life.
