Psalm 57

1 Be gracious to me, O God, be gracious to me, for my soul takes refuge in You; and in the shadow of Your wings I will take refuge until destruction passes by. 2 I will cry to God Most High, to God who accomplishes all things for me. 3 He will send from heaven and save me; He reproaches him who tramples upon me. Selah.
God will send forth His lovingkindness and His truth.

4 My soul is among lions; I must lie among those who breathe forth fire, even the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows and their tongue a sharp sword. 5 Be exalted above the heavens, O God; let Your glory be above all the earth. 6 They have prepared a net for my steps; my soul is bowed down; they dug a pit before me; they themselves have fallen into the midst of it. Selah

7My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises! 8 Awake, my glory! Awake, a harp and lyre! I will awaken the dawn. 9 I will give thanks to You, O Lord, among the peoples; I will sing praises to You among the nations. 10 For Your lovingkindness is great to the heavens and Your truth to the clouds. 11 Be exalted above the heavens, O God; let Your glory be above all the earth.

David shows a lot of faith in all of his psalms, I think through all my midterms and studying God is teaching me to have faith in Him. He will provide time for me to study, energy to get me through the day, and ultimately the grade that I get. Its hard to give this to God because our work is integrated in it so much. Its not completely out of our hands, yet we know that God is in control of everything. I cant wait until RESOLVED!!
