…Leave me not to mine oppressors.

…Let not the proud oppress me.

Mine eyes fail for thy salvation….

Deal with thy servant
according unto thy mercy….

It is time for thee, Lord, to work….

Therefore I esteem all thy precepts
concerning all things to be right;
and I hate every false way.

Psalm 119:121-128

Amen! Yes! Absolutely! God is good!

He also does good.

Even when He uses or allows affliction.

I will continue to come back to that in faith.

In that I rest.

Or must, anyway.

Thou hast dealt well with thy servant, O Lord,
according unto thy word.

Before I was afflicted
I went astray….

Thou art good,
and doest good;
teach me thy statutes.

It is good for me
that I have been afflicted;
that I might learn thy statutes.

The law of thy mouth
is better unto me
than thousands of gold and silver.

Psalm 119:65-72

Even now, I want that last statement to be my testimony as well.

Even now, when I truly need thousands of that stuff, I want to be able to say that I treasure God’s Word far more.

Do you have any practical pointers on how to reach that point?
