“Protect me, God, for I take refuge in You (Psalm 16:1 NASB).”
I need to feel safe and protected; we all do.
The Psalmist had found his hiding place; he trusted God.
“You are my hiding place; You keep me from trouble (Psalm 32:7a NASB).”
We can trust God; He will keep us safe.
“But You, Lord, are a shield around me (Psalm 3:3a NASB).”
He is our protective shield.
“You have also given me the shield of Your salvation,
And Your right hand upholds me (Psalm 118:35a NASB).”
The LORD upholds us because He is our source of strength.
“God is our refuge and strength,
A very ready help in trouble (Psalm 46:1 NASB).”
Is there trouble on every side?
Trust God.
“It is better to take refuge in the Lord
Than to trust in people (Psalm 118:8 NASB).”
He is LORD.

Amen I find your post reading it the 2nd time so comforting. And yes apart from his grace to trust in him I have nothing. But I’m thankful he answers prayers like this, “lord I believe help my unbelief”. So thankful for his grace in those areas.
