Today we are going Through the Psalms, chapter 10

Psalm 10: 16-18
“The Lord is King for ever and ever,
The nation will perish from his land.
You, Lord, hear the desire of the afflicted,
You encourage them, and you listen to their cry,
Defending the fatherless and the oppressed,
So that mere earthly mortals
Will never again strike terror.”

How reassuring is this? No matter who is leading a country, “The Lord is King.” So in times of turmoil or dissension, we know who is in charge. Our King hears ours desires when we are “afflicted.” His listens to our cries and defends us in times of difficulties. What a beautiful promise to cling to.

Thank you, Lord, for keeping your promises. Thank you for hearing our cries in times of oppression and problems. You are still the King of kings. Hallelujah!

After raising a family and then teaching for over 20 years, I retired from full-time work. Now I spend time with family, tap dance, take long walks in nature, read, and write. I have published two stories in Chicken Soup for the Soul books and over a dozen devotions. My current goal is to publish a book of meditations over the gospels and to share my devotional writing on my blog. I hope you enjoy and are inspired.
