David that man after Gods heart ,lived a very challenging life from dangers as a shepherd boy ,were bears and lions roamed,to facing a giant, and being hunted and hounded like a wild animal,by King Saul.In his later life his own son Absalom, sought to kill him,and so we could go on,how did he survive?.We will come to that,the good that came out of Davids life is his writings,writings inspired by Gods Spirit .Of course the Psalms are a wonderful example of this. consider how they have blessed so many people.Psalm 31 is such an example ,again he is writing out of a life threatening situation,Unlike the many surrounding nations,who worshipped worthless idols,his hope he declares was ,'In you,Lord,I have taken refuge',in v 9-10, he is honest to admit how he feels ,emotionally and physically affected,we may not smile in the storms of life,but we can trust in our God and Saviour, who does not despise us for our weaknesses,but understands.and feels for us. Our dear Saviour experienced the trials of life,one person has written,'He ,''co- suffers'',with us'.and encourages us to come to the throne of God with confidence so that we receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need. Hebrews 4 v 14 -16.
' Ask the Saviour to help you.'
