It’s like the Psalmist is telling us, I’m going to tell you a story and it has some bad parts to it. Evil doers will assail you. Armies will come after you. Wars will rise up against you. This is sounding good right? Kind of a fun little tale of life, right? And if written in the conventional style we’d probably stop reading right after evil doers. I mean, if the story of our lives is going downhill, do we really want to keep reading until the exciting conclusion? Not so much. But with the assurance of God’s presence with us first and foremost, we are equipped and prepared to hear the rest of the story. That’s the key piece here.
