For Reading and Meditation:     Psalm 139:1-24

"God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble." Psalms 46:1

Fear is to be the everlasting portion of him who in this life refuses to fear. Men exclude from their attention...

God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, even though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; though its waters roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with its swelling. § Come, my people, enter your chambers, and shut your doors behind you; hide yourself, as it were, for a little moment, until the indignation is past. For behold, the Lord comes out of His place to punish the inhabitants...

How long, O Lord? Will You forget me forever? How long will You hide Your face from me?
