Longing for God – Day 253

₁I love the LORD, because he hears me;

he listens to my prayers.

₂He listens to me

every time I call to him.

₃The danger of death was all round me;

the horrors of the grave closed in on me;

I was filled with fear and anxiety.

₄Then I called to the LORD,

“I beg you, LORD, save me!”

₅The LORD is merciful and good;

our God is compassionate.

₆The LORD protects the helpless;

when I was in danger, he saved me.
