Praise be to God!‘Save me, O God,
for the waters have come up to my neck.
I will praise God’s name in song
and glorify him with thanksgiving.’ PSALM 69:1, 30
Lord, help me to be realistic about the difficulties I face and be determined to focus on your love, power, and faithfulness.

for the waters have come up to my neck!
2 I sink in deep mire, where there is no foothold.
I have come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me.
3 I am weary with my crying.
My throat is dry.
My eyes fail looking for my God.
4 Those who hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head.
Those who want to cut me off, being my enemies wrongfully, are mighty.
…5 God, you know my foolishness.
My sins aren’t hidden from you.
6 Don’t let those who wait for you be shamed through me, Lord Yahweh of Armies.

Ransom me because of my enemies.
20 Reproach has broken my heart, and I am full of heaviness.
I looked for some to take pity, but there was none;
for comforters, but I found none.
21 They also gave me poison for my food.
In my thirst, they gave me vinegar to drink.
26 For they persecute him whom you have…29 But I am in pain and distress.
more
Let your salvation, God, protect me.
30 I will praise the name of God with a song,
and will magnify him with thanksgiving.
