I love the Lord

"I love the Lord, because he hath heard my voice and my supplications. Because he hath inclined his ear unto me, therefore will I call upon him as long as I live" (Psalm 116:1,2 KJV).  How many times have we been hit hard by the world, even to the point of giving up on life all together? David knew what it was like to be brought down and put down to the point of giving up. However, before the thought of giving up ever took him over the edge, he would run to the throne of God. He would find a place to cry out and pray to the Lord. He knew God would hear because God heard every time David called out. David had no doubt in the Lord, and he loved God for hearing his heart in his times of need. God heard him even in the times when he did not expect the Father to hear him. When death and pain surrounded him and during the times he forsook the Lord, God heard his cry. When things looked as if they couldn't get any worse, they did. "The sorrows of death compassed me, and the pains of hell got hold upon me: I found trouble and sorrow. Then called I upon the name of the Lord; O Lord, I beseech thee, deliver my soul." vs. 3 & 4. The Lord came to his aid and poured out His mercy upon him, just as He does today in our lives. Call upon the Lord with all your heart, and you won't regret it. He will come. God bless you.
