Psalm 41
1How blessed is he who considers the helpless;
The LORD will deliver him in a day of trouble.
2The LORD will protect him and keep him alive,
And he shall be called blessed upon the earth;
And do not give him over to the desire of his enemies.
3The LORD will sustain him upon his sickbed;
In his illness, You restore him to health.
4As for me, I said, "O LORD, be gracious to me;
Heal my soul, for I have sinned against You."
5My enemies speak evil against me,
"When will he die, and his name perish?"
6And when he comes to see me, he speaks falsehood;
His heart gathers wickedness to itself;
When he goes outside, he tells it.
7All who hate me whisper together against me;
Against me they devise my hurt, saying,
8"A wicked thing is poured out upon him,
That when he lies down, he will not rise up again."
9Even my close friend in whom I trusted,
Who ate my bread,
Has lifted up his heel against me.
10But You, O LORD, be gracious to me and raise me up,
That I may repay them.
11By this I know that You are pleased with me,
Because my enemy does not shout in triumph over me.
12As for me, You uphold me in my integrity,
And You set me in Your presence forever.
13Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel,
From everlasting to everlasting.
Amen and Amen.
The LORD will deliver him in a day of trouble.
2The LORD will protect him and keep him alive,
And he shall be called blessed upon the earth;
And do not give him over to the desire of his enemies.
3The LORD will sustain him upon his sickbed;
In his illness, You restore him to health.
4As for me, I said, "O LORD, be gracious to me;
Heal my soul, for I have sinned against You."
5My enemies speak evil against me,
"When will he die, and his name perish?"
6And when he comes to see me, he speaks falsehood;
His heart gathers wickedness to itself;
When he goes outside, he tells it.
7All who hate me whisper together against me;
Against me they devise my hurt, saying,
8"A wicked thing is poured out upon him,
That when he lies down, he will not rise up again."
9Even my close friend in whom I trusted,
Who ate my bread,
Has lifted up his heel against me.
10But You, O LORD, be gracious to me and raise me up,
That I may repay them.
11By this I know that You are pleased with me,
Because my enemy does not shout in triumph over me.
12As for me, You uphold me in my integrity,
And You set me in Your presence forever.
13Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel,
From everlasting to everlasting.

i write this at 4 in the afternoon. i got back at 5 am and just came back from eating with hannah and a bunch of girls. hannah is leaving to korea next week. total estimated driving time is 12-13 hours...and how did ppl know i went to norcal? what happened to my secret keepers? its ok. =P
i was battling exhaustion most of the drive up and down...but more than that i was battling wrong thinking. my mind can't fight for truth if it itself is not grounded in it. and i realize how prone i am to thinking wrong things most of the time.
i know all of us are going through a lot of things right now girls...but i pray that we are all going through these things well. our Lord helps the helpless, our Lord protects the defenseless, our Lord sustains the weak and heals our souls. even when our most trusted friends and family desert us...He will never leave us. we are so quick to forsake the greatest Lover of our souls, but He is so quick to receive us back....running to meet us.
Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting. Amen and Amen.
Amen and Amen.
ever think about what amen means?
