A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 1 is found in chapter 124 of Psalms. Psalm 124 imagines what would have happened if the Lord had not been with Israel. The threat appears as a flood, the teeth of predators, and a hunter’s snare, images expressing an impossible survival situation. The community recognizes that deliverance was exclusively God’s work. The final confession that help comes from the Creator of heaven and earth turns the memory of danger into a declaration of trust.
Meditate on this verse and share your reflection or spiritual experience with the community. Your comments will enrich everyone's learning.
