Christians in every generation have had to grapple with the reality that wicked people prosper in this world. What makes this is especially hard is  the opposite reality: godly people suffer in this world. And yet we're told over and over that God is good to His people, that His love is unfailing, and that His faithfulness is without exception. What gives? How can both be true? What are we supposed to do with the tension between our suffering and the wicked's success? Between what we know to be true of God and what feels true as we lament what's happening around us?

While Psalm 37 doesn't fully resolve these tensions, it offers the people of God both a reminder of what's true and a plan for remaining faithful in the face of what can feel so unbearably unfair. In this episode we'll learn how to move from fretting to trusting as we fix our eyes on the steadfast promises of God.

Some passages are so familiar that they're in danger of becoming biblical white noise. We can quote them, sing them, and effortlessly explain them. We put them on our coffee mugs and wall plaques. They're a regular find at the local Hobby Lobby.  But just like familiarity eventually led my grandparents to  stop hearing the train that ran close to their home, our familiarity with certain passages of Scripture can cause us to lose sight of the profound nature of their message. Their beauty gets a little bit clouded by our awareness. Their meaning gets muffled by our assumption that we already know everything there is to know.

Psalm 23 is one of those passages. We love it, cherish it, recite it, and print it on our funeral programs. But when was the last time you stopped and really pondered the astonishing reality that the God of the universe - the Creator and King over all things  - cares for you and me as a shepherd cares for His sheep? When was the last time you unpacked that metaphor? Meditated on it? Personalized it? Treasured it?

That's what we  are setting out to do in this episode. We are going to stop and actually hear the train. We're going to savor afresh the anxiety-crushing truths contained in these six verses. And then we're going to take a deep breath and remind our hearts that this God is our God. 

"The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want..."

We are several weeks into this series on the attributes of God. Week after week we have asked the question, “What does this Psalm teach me about God?”

As a result we've seen some incredible things! We’ve marveled at God’s knowledge, His love, His sovereignty, His goodness, His grace, His power, His wisdom, His patience and so many other amazing attributes.

As we near the end of our study it’s incredibly important that we consider the practical implications of this knowledge. In others words, now what? How do we respond to what we know about God’s character? What do we do? 

Psalm 86 shows us that we pray.

One of the most significant metaphors for God throughout the entire book of Psalms is that of a refuge, which is really comforting when you stop and consider all the things in our lives that threaten our sense of security. Most of us live each day with a heavy load of "what ifs" weighing on our minds. We do everything we can to prevent what we fear, but we all know our efforts have their limits. We are ultimately not in control.

But the One who IS in control has spoken to us in His Word. He has given us passages like Psalm 91 to remind us that He is a refuge and fortress, a strong defense for those who put their trust in Him. This episode is a powerful reminder that God loves and protects His own.
