David and Asaph and other contributors to the book of Psalms exhort all people in all places and times to fear the Lord for the things he has done and for the kindness and righteousness of the Lord. It is a correct response to the character of God to obey the Lord and if you fail to repent and to rejoice in the goodness of God. Life can be difficult and there are battles, poverty, trials and tribulations we all endure. Let us endure them with the Lord by our side. 

People can be cruel. Our own unbelief and wanderings can really test God's patience. Let all circumstances in life lead you TO God. Age, young or aging can be a reason to ask for God to help. Consider the skies and the creation, the accounts of those who have seen God do wonders. Remember and tune into His grace and help. Praise God for the things he has done. Life with a sense of God's oversight and ultimate judgement of what we do in this thing called life.

God is our place of safety. There is forever ahead of the believer to dwell with God in heaven. While here on earth, we have many troubles, issues and concerns. It seems at times that we are all alone as if there are no actual allies. We speak for the Lord, we live for the Lord, it is He alone who gives us the strength to endure and overcome the issues of life. You may not be able to depend upon people, but you can pour it all out to God, holding nothing back and He will hear your confessions and requests to give you both forgiveness and help.

Prayer is always appropriate. Hard times, battles, betrayals, regret over sin. There is really no issue exempt from a repentant, contrite heart to cry out to God. Strong prayers of need, want and desire for God's will. Trusting and expectant faith in God is all that is required. 

The Lord sees all and hears the prayers the believing soul offers. He sees the good you do , or do not do. When you are sick and upset, God sees. Use every type of situation, every feeling to ask for The Lord's help. Rejoice and thank God for the answers He gives to you, for the times and ways God brings you through every difficulty.

Distress, pain, age, sufferings of all kinds need not cause distance between the believing soul and The Lord. It may seem that our own mistakes and failings would make a perfect case against praying to God, however, this is the point where we see the psalms pressing in toward God in spite of life's difficulties. Take courage and KEEP PRAYING!

God is near as a prayer. Have faith and trust in the Lord. Remember His past deeds and blessings. Know that future blessing of being in His presence is a reality for believers. Praise the Lord for what he has done for you. Pray and await His answers, then tell others about it!

Our lives can be summed up in many ways, but outside of the sight of God is not one of them. The wicked and unbelievers think God is a fairy tale, He is not. God watches and sees all. He is near to the righteous and to the innocent, the poor and those who call to Him for help. 

The Psalms are prayers, songs and heartfelt outpourings from human lips to the ears of heaven. Today we listen to the first ten. ERV.

Given the chance we all may doubt our strongest most adamant stances on topics. Faith in God or Belief in God is sometimes up on that chopping block. However, this subject of Belief in God has gotta make it. We need belief to make this life anew work, to keep it going. We may have doubt, no need to sugar coat it or to pretend as if this is not an actual thing. Let's just do our best to be honest about it..
