Psalm 146

A dear friend sent this passage to me this morning:

"3 Do not put your trust in princes, in human beings, who cannot save. 4 When their spirit departs, they return to the ground; on that very day their plans come to nothing. 5 Blessed are those whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the Lord their God. 6 He is the Maker of heaven and earth, the sea, and everything in them—he remains faithful forever. 7 He upholds the cause of the oppressed and gives food to the hungry. The Lord sets prisoners free, 8 the Lord gives sight to the blind, the Lord lifts up those who are bowed down, the Lord loves the righteous. 9 The Lord watches over the foreigner and sustains the fatherless and the widow, but he frustrates the ways of the wicked. 10 The Lord reigns forever, your God, O Zion, for all generations. Praise the Lord."
Psalm 146:3-10

It's been food for thought all day long. Thank you for sending this my way, precious friend, just when I need a reminder of the Lord's power (vs6), provision(vs7), and wonderful promises that are kept forever (vs10). I needed a reminder of trusting in the LORD GOD rather than man (vs3). Just thinking of the fact that God created the Heaven and earth is an amazing thing!!
