A Psalm of David, spoken as a prophet, seeing into the future what would happen to the Messiah. It is Jesus Christ who says "the Lord is my portion and my cup". " I am secure, for you will not will let my flesh see corruption". Death loses all power over Christ and because of that, this Psalm is one to reflect on when considering our mortality. Where is our hope found? Jonathan Noel sings "You Will Not Abandon Me".
