Day 4 - Psalm 4 - Thru the Bible 2019

Bible Readings: Genesis 8: 1–10: 32 Matthew 4: 12-25 Psalm 4: 1-8 Proverbs 1: 20-23

Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. Selah. Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in the LORD.—Ps 4:4-5
When my heart is overwhelmed with sorrow or anger or the trials and heartbreak that come with living in a fallen world, these verses are more often than not, the ones the Lord brings to mind.  I like the KJV here the best.  Stand in awe of God!  Remember who your God is!  Offer the sacrifices of righteousness (for me this means to do the next right thing) and put my trust in Him.  My Jehovah-Shammah will be forever near...LORD, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us.
