Psalms

These are some of my favorite verses from the book of Psalms.

Psalm 27:1 "The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?"

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

Psalm 107:9 "For he satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness."

Psalm 142:8-9 "The Lord is gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and full of great mercy. The Lord is good to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works."

I like the Psalms because I think they tell so much about the characteristics of the Lord, and these few verses provide a couple snippets that I really like; the Lord is our strength, He is loving and compassionate, and through Him, we are filled. He is also a "very present help," which is reassuring because I think I tend to forget sometimes how close He is.
