Psalm 18:1-3

Psalm 18:1-3 

  This is one of my favorite Psalms, because there's such a strong sense of mutual love throughout it.  David loves God, because God is David's only sure thing, the very foundation of his life, that cannot be shaken, and God's love for David comes through, because God will save David from David's foes.  
  How many hours of prayer did David invest to come to this point?  It's a lifetime -- similar to Stephen, this is from the deep well of the heart, overflowing in times of danger and threat.  
  I pray for the wisdom and patience to lean into God like this, to allow the Holy Spirit to shape my heart in such a way that I can pray like this, that I can live like this.
