Psalm 91

Summary: The psalmist speaks to one who trusts God like he does, assuring him that God will protect them.

Response: I can't help but feel like this is another train of thought that Jesus completely upends. The psalm says that, because I am good, God will save me; but I am seldom good enough to warrant that. Instead, I feel like Jesus would say that because God is good, He will save me. It's grace, and it should change our actions and our thoughts, but you don't have to be good enough before receiving it.
