We draw near to God first thing each morning, and even through the night. (v.147-149) 3. When difficulties are near to us, the Lord Himself is near to us. (v.150-151) Where is God when we need Him? How self-seeking are our prayers? Mt. 6:33 How should Christians start each day? Phil. 4:7-9 In what way does God help with difficulties? Deut.4:7
