From the Psalms

Psalms 3

The last verse says, "Real help comes from God." I can stop searching and looking for answers. God is the *real deal*. When HE helps, it is truly HELP, not a quick fix.

Psalm 4 says, "He listens the split second I call to him." Then further down it says, "Keep your mouth shut, and let your heart do the talking."

So often I call out to God, but I don't hear any response and I get frustrated. Yet there are other times when I hear right away, even through my complaining. I guess it's a heart issue!

Psalm 13 is so cool! From what I can tell, David is calling out to God, but has not received his deliverance yet. Even so, he's CHOOSING to praise God for the answer he expects, AND he is doing that by looking back at all the things God has already answered! It really does work!
