When I Am Lonely Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Apr 29, 2013

Do you ever feel physically or emotionally alone? David knew very well how that felt. Fortunately for us, he wrote down both his feelings and his vision of what to do in these very difficult times.

We don’t really know the occasion for Psalm 63. It could have been written when David was running from Saul, or from his son, Absalom. This psalm is really about who you turn to when it seems like there is nothing in your environment that brings comfort or rest. 1 – 2 David was in ...read more

How To Approach God Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Mar 17, 2013

As in both psalms, only trusting in God for your salvation is what matters. This ...read more
