Psalm 124

The story of the Israelites is truly an incredible one. While my story cannot begin to compare with what Moses' generation experienced, I have also needed God, and He has been faithful. No, He hasn't sent a plague across my enemies nor parted the waters, and I have definitely never seen food fall from the sky, but He has acted. Praise be to the Lord; my help is in Him!

Psalm 124

A song of ascents. Of David.
1 If the Lord had not been on our side—
let Israel say—
2 if the Lord had not been on our side
when people attacked us,
3 they would have swallowed us alive
when their anger flared against us;
4 the flood would have engulfed us,
the torrent would have swept over us,
5 the raging waters
would have swept us away.

6 Praise be to the Lord,
who has not let us be torn by their teeth.
7 We have escaped like a bird
from the fowler’s snare;
the snare has been broken,
and we have escaped.
8 Our help is in the name of the Lord,
the Maker of heaven and earth.

Today, I am thankful.
