Part of coming to know Christ in a more intimate way is through the fellowship of His sufferings. If we are to truly grow in knowing Christ, we can be sure we will to some degree experience the fellowship of His sufferings. If we are to experience the power of His resurrection, we can also be sure we will experience the fellowship of His sufferings.
-Trusting God by Jerry Bridges
Psalm 57 comes to my mind. I love the idea of being held in "the shadows of thy wings".
ReplyDeleteAnother fave: Vs. 3 "He shall send from Heaven, and save me from the reproach of him (Satan, or fear, or....) who would swallow me up. Selah. God shall send forth His mercy and His truth."
God is GOOD, Ann.
Amen.
