Thoughts while Traveling

4.19.2004

Psalm 146

"Praise the Lord, I tell myself.
I will praise Him as long as I live.
I will sing praises to my God even with my dying breath.

Don't put your confidence in powerful people;
there is no help for you there.
When their breathing stops, they return to the earth,
and in a moment all their plans come to an end.

But happy are those who have the God of Israel as their helper, whose hope is in the Lord their God.
He is the One who made the Heaven and the earth, the sea, and everything in them.

He is the One who keeps every promise forever, who gives justice to the oppressed and food to the hungry.
The Lord frees the prisoners

The Lord opens the eyes of the blind. The Lord lifts the burdens of those bent beneath their loads.

The Lord loves the righteous. The Lord protects the foreigners among us. He cares for the orphans and the widows, but he frustrates the plans of the wicked.

The Lord will reign forever. O Jerusalem, your God is King in every generation!"
