Psalm Thirty

David is celebrating God's deliverance with words of praise. So many times in life we ask for God's help when we are at the end of our rope. When He comes to the rescue, however, we forget where our help came from. It's like being pulled out of a fire from a firefighter, then telling the reporter that what matters isn't how you were rescued, just that you are safe. There is appreciation in the gratitude. I enjoy David's realism. He admits that there were tough times and still acknowledges that God is the one that brought Him through. God is good, all the time.

Heart and Soul,
