Passion for Praise: 'He Will Send Help!'

Friday, July 3, 2009

Have mercy on me, O God, have mercy! I look to you for protection. I will hide beneath the shadow of your wings until the danger passes by. I cry out to God Most High, to God who will fulfill his purpose for me He will send help from heaven to rescue me, disgracing those who hound me.
— Psalm 57:1-3
