Psalm 140

(oops, I went too far. I'll jump back next time)

Summary: David needs God's protection from people who would destroy him with words or actions. He feels like that kind of person has it in for him. He asks God for protection against such attacks. David finishes as usual, that the wicked suffer and die.

Response: Working past that last section, I hear David asking for protection from bad things, but I don't hear him asking God to make the bad things stop. I often overthink things, but I don't think this is one of those times. I wonder what I have been trying to avoid in my life instead of going with God's protection.
