The only thing keeping me sane through my fathers suffering (and mothers) is dwelling and writing about the Lord's goodness and steadfastness. I will praise His Holy Name: Jesus. I pray these posts of pain are reaching someone and helping them realize they are not alone in a dark hour.
Psalm 54
For the director of music. With stringed instruments. A maskil of David. When the Ziphites had gone to Saul and said, “Is not David hiding among us?”
(1) Save me, O God, by your name;
vindicate me by your might.
(2) Hear my prayer, O God;
listen to the words of my mouth.
(3) Arrogant foes are attacking me;
ruthless people are trying to kill me—
people without regard for God.
(4) Surely God is my help;
the Lord is the one who sustains me.
(5) Let evil recoil on those who slander me;
in your faithfulness destroy them.
(6) I will sacrifice a freewill offering to you;
I will praise your name, LORD, for it is good.
(7) You have delivered me from all my troubles,
and my eyes have looked in triumph on my foes.
