In this Psalm, elder Muchun Yin preaches on where we find our refuge. Peter preaches a portion of this Psalm in Acts chapter 2, showing us that Jesus is the fulfillment of the Psalm. Therefore, Jesus was the refugee that left the glory of heaven to sacrifice himself to redeem us from our sin. And the result of his sacrifice is eternal pleasure at the right hand of the Father. Likewise, we must also become refugees in the sense that we do not trust in ourselves but rather in the Lord. And just like Jesus, we can enjoy pleasures forevermore.

In this Psalm the author asks a similar question. And ultimately he finds his conclusion in God's character and closeness.
In this Psalm, David offers to us a metaphor for how we are to approach the Lord--as a weaned child, contented with simply being close to his mother. In this short passage, David denounces pride in himself and confident hope in the Lord to meet his deepest needs.
