Psalm 27
Psalm Of Trust
Psalm 27 has been a favorite of mine from college
days. There was a time when my parents
did not understand my new found faith in Christ. At one of these times my pastor shared this
Psalm with me. It has been a help ever
since!
MY CONFIDENCE Vss. 1-6
MY CRY Vss. 7-12
MY CALM Vss. 13-14
You might want to substitute the word "my"
with the word "David's".
There's lots of gold in these verses. Enjoy digging
for it!
