William's comment on 2014-10-09 05:40:57:

Many times in life we may feel discouraged, but there is a place we can go. David had this kind of day when he wrote this scripture. He had to talk to himself and say you need to trust God. he reminded himself to put his future in God 's hands. What has you down? It may be a doctor 's report, job loss, divorce, child on drugs, family problems, death of loved one, senseless evil or attack against you. If you can turn your eyes on the Lord and see His salvation your heart will be filled with a new hope for living!

Timothy Wayne George's comment on 2013-03-14 06:30:30:

Why are you crushed oh my soul? Why are you disquieted in me? Hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise Him. Who is the health of my countenance, and my God. No matter what the trial, God gives us hope, help, and healing. So rather than being depressed, praise God, just as the deer pants after the water brooks, so we must pant after God, the living God. Jesus said because I live, ye shall live also. The thief comes to steal, kill, and to destroy, but Christ comes that we may have life, and that more abundantly.
