All right, WB7MX, we're looking for check-ins. Please come now. W6YSI, good morning.

Good morning, Steve. W6YSI, do you have any comments on air direction changes at altitude, at various altitudes? Go ahead.

Yeah, I do. Buy about a $12 million jet that's got all the computers and whatnot, and it'll make it a lot easier to think about. Yeah, yeah, you can figure that stuff out a lot better with all those ground speed and wind direction indicators.

All right, Steve, good morning. How are you doing, brother? I'm doing okay, yeah.

We're just, you know... It seems like the more you get into this want to sell the house and go someplace else, each day it brings another question. Well, have you had this done?

You better take care of this. Anyway. We're doing okay though, Max.

Just no complaints. I have no prayer requests. W6YSI.

Alright, yeah, real good, Steve. Yeah, moving involves a lot of complications. And I was thinking to myself, "Oh, Steve's gonna sell and move.

Boy, he's got a lot of chaos ahead of him." So anyway, but God will sustain you one day at a time, one problem at a time, and it will eventually all work out just fine. All right, real good, Steve. Good to have you with us.

Love to hear your voice and appreciate your presence on the net. All right, WB7MX here looking for check-ins. Please come now with your call sign.

WB7VZL. And good morning, Roger, WB7VZL. Good to have you with us.

Well, we're gearing up to go north, 100 miles north of Spokane today. That's the goal with about ten of us, three vehicles. So we're praying for traveling mercies and grace upon the vehicles, etc.

And, yeah, it's happening. Our guests from Kenya and Australia are thriving. We trust.

And I don't think the ranch has ever had guests from outside the immediate family. So this is kind of a new threshold. Over.

Right, right. How long are they going to be there on the ranch in Coville? Just a couple of days, yeah.

And then we're going to Spokane on Sabbath, and then I'll probably come back with Daylene to the ranch for a few days. And I'll try to check in, do my best to check in from up there. Over.

Copy that. We're real good. All right.

So, Al, KJ7QQH, here's another prayer request from Roger, WB7VZO, for Traveling Mercies, for he and his group of people that are going up to Coville, Washington, to deposit some friends at their remote ranch out in the woods there. QSL? Good copy.

All right, real good, real good. Okay, WB7MX here looking for check-ins. Please come now.

Okay, there's Carol, KK7TPO. Good morning, Carol. All right, copy Carol's voice and no new prayer requests.

Carol, KK7TPO got you checked in. Thank you for being there. All right, any other check-ins, please come now.

All right, we are about ready to get started with our Bible study. I see Brian, KJ7PWM. Brian, got you checked in.

Appreciate you being there off the Utah SDR line. Let me look over my Netlogger thing and see if I missed anybody. Looks pretty good there.

I think I got everybody there. Yep, and we're all caught up on Hathorne Bay. All right, I think we are all caught up with our check-ins.

We are ready to get started. Let's see, Will KM5F, could you please open in prayer for us today for our West Coast Bible study? Go ahead there, Will.

Sure. Gracious, you want me to do that right now, KM5S? Yeah, go ahead and do that right now.

We're ready to get started. Gracious Heavenly Father, we thank you for this day and for the many blessings of it. And we just ask for your blessings on those that have medical needs.

We just lift up each and every one that's listening today, Lord. We ask that you would hear our prayers and our supplications and that you would work with those that are on these fires and other weather events where there's been a lot of destruction, Lord. We pray that you would work in our hearts as we put on our armor daily, Lord.

We pray that you would keep evil from us. and we ask for those that are caregivers, ask for your blessings upon them, and pray that you would bless us in your word as we read it today. In Jesus' name we pray.

Amen. Amen, Will. Thank you so much for that.

Roger, WB7BZL, I'm going to give a little introduction to Psalm 61, but if you could read that for us when I'm done. I would appreciate that. So, Roger, go ahead and prepare to read Psalm 61.

All right, Psalm 61, a little introduction. This is a psalm about troubles. And troubles in life are something that we all experience.

Thankfully, most of our troubles are moderate in nature. Perhaps we're passed over for a promotion at work. Perhaps the car breaks down.

Maybe a neighbor's giving us a fit. Those things are not pleasant, but those things are not overwhelming either. But there are times when our troubles are absolutely overwhelming.

Sometimes our troubles are so great that we feel completely crushed by them and buried under them. We are helpless in the face of them and we have no strength to deal with them. We feel paralyzed, we feel bewildered, we feel overpowered.

and were kind of dazed and stunned and don't know what to do. Well, that was David's situation in this psalm. He says in verse 2, my heart is overwhelmed.

And so his situation is that he had been exiled from his throne. and has had to flee from Jerusalem as a result of the betrayal of his own son Absalom. His own son had risen up against David, dethroned David, and is seeking to kill David.

And he had subverted David's former friends and trusted confidants. and even turned them against David. And so by slanders and by bribes, Absalom enticed those who had been loyal to David to betray him and stab him in the back.

As a result, David had to flee. into the wilderness to hide from his own son and his traitorous friends. Now, this betrayal of David by his own son and his former friends was absolutely shattering.

It was overwhelming. And so out of this overwhelming trouble that David was in, he turns to God, he prays to God, and he pours out his heart to God. And once again, we see David exercising faith in God as the response to a very, very difficult situation.

So he prays for help from God in this psalm. He expresses his confidence in God. And David promises to continue to faithfully worship God, even in the midst of this overwhelming trouble.

is overwhelming fear and anxiety about the circumstances. And so it is with us. When our circumstances overwhelm us, when we are helpless to deal with them or resolve them in our own wisdom and strength, it's then that we have to stir up our faith in God and in His promises and cry out to Him for help and for mercy.

And like Peter sinking on the wave, the Lord saved me, I perish. I cannot swim in this situation. So faith in God and his promises can overwhelm.

overwhelming circumstances. I'll say that again. Faith in God and His promises can overwhelm overwhelming circumstances.

That's what's going on here with David. Alright, with that little background, uh, Roger, WV7VZL, if you could read for us Psalm 61, I'd appreciate that. Go ahead.

Reading from the New American Standard Bible. Hear my cry, O God. Give heed to my prayer.

From the end of the earth I call to Thee when my heart is faint. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I. For thou hast been a refuge for me, a tower of strength against the enemy.

Let me dwell in thy tent forever; let me take refuge in the shelter of thy wings. For thou hast heard my vow, O God; thou hast given me the inheritance of those who fear thy name. Thou wilt prolong the king's life; his years will be as many generations.

He will abide before God forever. appoint loving kindness and truth that they may be preserved that they may preserve him so i will sing praise to thy name forever that i may pay my vows day by day Psalm 61. Back to you, Max.

Roger, thank you for that reading. Before we talk about the psalm, the net would like to acknowledge Peter KJ7BA. Good morning, Peter.

See you there on the Utah SDR. All right, any comments? Okay, Peter says good morning to everyone.

Peter, thank you for that. All right, any comments on Psalm 61? Please come down to your call sign.

Kevin, KB7 is at XM. Please go ahead. Well, I'll just get it rolling a little bit.

Good introduction, Max, and I agree. I think this really fits the circumstances with Absalom quite well and likely to be a in context of that but again we see you know circumstances were of David where he's dealing with great trials a great attack and betrayal and even begins out crying out to God and and You know, just that in of itself does a lot to give us a picture of his circumstance and need. You know, when we're in great need, and, you know, I know there's been times in my life where I've cried out to God.

But the wonderful... wonderful conversation and worship that unfolds here, too, is the recognition of God and the position where David seems so far removed... from the city on the hill, the place where God is, if you will, the circumstance that it's unattainable for him, but yet he knows God's promise.

And he knows even though his circumstance, he doesn't see a path to get back to Jerusalem himself. God has promised that where God resides, in the tent in the tabernacle uh that that uh that he will be with god again and then i love how this really points to christ in the future king as you get to verse seven um we really see the fulfillment where it's fulfilled in john uh 114 when christ uh you know when the word became flesh and dwelt among us and we beheld his glory we see the fulfillment of that as he's pointing to the eternal King now he goes from the temporal to the eternal really focusing throughout this but pointing to the coming Messiah the King of Kings in this in the eternal hope here so Yes, again, we see terrible circumstances surrounding David. But again, his focus is where it should be.

And that is on our eternal hope and the very strong and capable hands of our Lord. and that we can trust in him to make things right. KB7 is that example.

Yeah, Kevin, great comments, good observations. And, you know, here's a guy who, as you said, is overwhelmed. You know, when Roger read out of his version, In verse 2, King James says, "When my heart is overwhelmed." He said, "When his heart is faint." And so, you know, I think both of those ideas are there.

We're faint because we feel like we have no strength, and we have no strength because whatever we're facing is bigger than we are, by far. You know, if you've ever been out in the ocean, And a big old wave came in and you're looking at the wave and you're looking at yourself and you're thinking, "Oh no, here we go." And it hits you and slams you into the beach and rolls you around a little bit. That's kind of the feeling here I think that's captured.

And you feel faint, you feel without strength, and you feel overwhelmed all at the same time. So, yeah, David says here in verse 2, Well, you know, he was at the borders, driven to the borders of his own kingdom. So he was at the edge of the world.

that he formerly ruled over. And so here he's been driven out. He's at the very edge of his kingdom, what he calls the end of the earth.

And he's crying out to God. And, you know, Kevin, it reminds me of this passage in Hebrews chapter 4. and verse 15 and 16 it says we have not a high priest which cannot be touched with a feeling of our infirmities but was in all points tempted like as we are yet without sin let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace and that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

And so that's what David's doing. He knows God, understands the sensations that are going through him right now and the feelings that he has. All right, the net would like to acknowledge Brian KA7ZIP and Tom WW7T.

Tom checked in by way of text message and we see Brian there on the SDR. Thank you guys for being there. All right, Kevin, thank you for those comments.

Any other comments on our solver, please come now. Okay, we had a double there. First of all, we'll go with Mark, KJ7PVT, and then we'll get over to KD7WVV.

Go ahead there first, Mark. Yeah, fairly well. Go ahead.

Um, that is verse 3, uh, verse 4. And I will, uh, I will advise you to have a little more information. And I will use the data I have found in the two others.

I would use the data that is in that verse 4 as you might have seen on the screen.... Thank you. Thank you.

Okay, I think Mark's done. Alright, so what I heard from Mark is that he was in verse 4 there, "I will abide in thy tabernacle forever." I will trust in the covert of thy wings. And the imagery there is of a chick running under the wings of the hen in order to obtain protection.

And our Lord Jesus, of course, is that protecting bird, if you will. He says in Matthew chapter 23, O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, how often I have gathered thee as a hen gathers her chicks, but you would not. Therefore your house is...

is left to you desolate. And so that's in Matthew chapter 23 and in verse 37, Matthew 23, 37. So Mark's tying those two passages together, rightly so.

And so when David says, I will trust in the covert of thy wings, He's really saying, "I'm going to trust in the Messiah. I'm going to trust in the promised Messiah, the Lord Jesus, and find my refuge in Him." And you know, the thing about David is that he was, of course, used to going to the tabernacle where God's special presence was. He couldn't go to the tabernacle because he'd been exiled from Jerusalem and run out of town, was clear out at the edge of the kingdom, but God was there.

And so wherever you are, God is. His presence is always with us, and we can always take refuge under the wings of His love, under the wings of His Son, under the wings of His promises. under the wings of His providential care for us.

So you're always covered, wherever you are, by the goodness of God, by the love of God, by the grace of God, and by the mercy of God. Mark, great comment there. All right, let's go over to Joe, KD7WBV.

Joe, go ahead. Yeah, I was looking at my verses 5 and 6. The thing that comes to my mind is like a marriage, you know?

That for now God has heard my vows. and given me the heritage of those that fear thy name. But then, you know, I think of politics, whenever you go to verse 6, you will prolong the keep of life in this year's generation.

But what I understand is, David was easily betrayed by his own son Absalom, and you know the context is just 87 WBC. Yeah, Joe, that's exactly correct. Yeah, verse 5, Yeah.

And Joe was saying that that sounds like marriage vows almost. And it is true. David made promises to God in terms of repenting of his sins and trusting in the promised Messiah as his Savior and that he would serve and follow God all the days of his life and that as kings.

he would be faithful to God in leading the nation in righteousness. Those were all promises that David made. And so when we come to God and we repent of our sins, we trust in Jesus as our Savior, we give our lives to him to follow him as Lord.

God hears and sees those commitments and God honors them and God responds to them. Now in verse 6 when it says, "Thou shall prolong the king's life in as years as many generations." I think that he's hearkening back to the Davidic covenant that was made there in 2 Samuel 7. And basically what was being said is that David would never lack a son to sit on the throne.

And he's saying, look, God, you've made promises to me. I believe those promises. And this usurper...

is not going to break or violate or be successful in thwarting the covenant that you've made. When it comes to Davidic succession, that was not to be done by usurpation. It was to be done by...

divine transfer. And of course, we know ultimately the throne was transferred rightly to Solomon, and that Solomon, of course, transferred it to his son, and it was done in an orderly fashion. So I think David is looking here at his faith that he has in Jesus Christ.

He's looking at the promises that have been made in the Davidic covenant, and he's using those as the foundation of his prayer and his appeal to God, for God to act on his behalf and to bring a deliverance from him. Joe, great comment. Thank you for that.

All right, any other comments? Please come now. YSI 76 YSI go ahead yeah verse 4 David says let me dwell my tent forever let me take refuge shelter of thy wings and I think their translations might say that show that that word dwell, the idea of ojourning.

Immediately think of Psalm 15. David gives lots of comment there, or sheds a lot of light as, "Okay, who may dwell in that tent?" I wonder what you're thinking about that there, Max, W6YSI. Yeah, Steve, thank you for that comment.

Yep, dwelling is certainly contained in verse 4, I will abide in thy tabernacle. That is, I will dwell. And so the idea is you're not going to just show up there.

You're going to live there, and you're going to live there forever. But the question is, who's going to live in God's tabernacle, in God's presence, forever? And Steve pointed out a psalm we've gone over before, and that is Psalm 15, that asks the question in verse 1, "Lord, who will dwell in your tabernacle?

Who dwell in your presence? He that walks uprightly, and works righteousness, and speaks the truth in his heart? He that backbites not with his tongue?

nor does evil to his neighbor, nor takes up a reproach against his neighbor, in whose eyes a vile person is condemned, but he honors them that fear the Lord. He that swears to his own hurt and changes not, he that puts not out his money to usury, nor takes reward against the innocent, he that does these things will not be moved, and the ideas will not be moved from dwelling in the tabernacle of the Lord. The point is that Steve's making here, and that we need to understand is that those who dwell in the presence of God, are those who are following God, living for God, and manifesting godly principles in the way in which they deal with various situations in their lives.

There's quite the list of them there in Psalm 15, but those are just exemplary of someone who, when they're facing a situation in life... their first thought is what does God want me to do here what is he saying his word well do that and then the next situation comes up what does God want me to do here what is he saying his word I'll do that and so the person who dwells in the presence of God is one who is self-consciously not only believing in God but following God in his daily life, in the decisions he makes, in the circumstances that he's facing, and he makes those decisions based on what God says in his word that he ought to do. And that is the person who abides in God's tabernacle, not only in the present, but forever.

Steve, thank you for that comment. All right. Any other comments?

Please come down. Kevin, KB7 ZXN. Go ahead.

KB7 ZXN. And really, very good comments all the way around. And I just wanted to look to kind of add a principle we see impact here a little bit, too, because clearly this is real physical circumstances that David was dealing with.

But it serves us well, too. It is valuable for us to focus on the eternal. And that is also what David is doing here, too.

And we see that, you know, both in the text. that Mark pointed out, where taking refuge under his wings. Well, we see it in Psalm 57 in the beginning there, where we see that same text, but in that circumstance, we see that's really focused on that particular situation or circumstance.

Here, as Steve pointed out, in dwelling in the tabernacle, if you will, with God, where God does reside in his dwelling place, where we would be in his presence and under his wings there. his refuge on an eternal basis. You know, when we are in the presence of God in eternity, there is no enemy that will ever reach us.

And so, yes... there is certainly the covenant being spoken of here, the promises of God, and David's response to that covenant, his vows, his commitment to, yes, God, and I commit myself to you, is expressed here. But I think one of the principles here, too, is the eternal perspective that David is also bringing to this covenant to this psalm, and that is that the king of kings will reign forever, and our refuge with the Lord, his promise to him and his promise to us, is an eternal promise and our vows to him uh you know let us do our best to be faithful to him because we know ultimately he will be faithful to us kb7 is an example yeah amen well said kevin before i respond to your comment the net would like to acknowledge dave ke7 wki And Dawn, AC7KW.

Dave and Dawn, thank you for being there on the Utah STR. Appreciate you guys showing up for the Bible study. All right, back to Kevin's comments.

Yeah, you know, verse 6, Kevin, that will prolong the king's life. Well, that's... That's hope for this life, right?

And then it says in verse 7, he shall abide before God forever. Well, that's the eternal perspective. So not only is God going to take care of us in this life, he's going to take care of us forever.

And that's the good news. And as you said, you know, Psalm 57 talked about David finding refuge under God's wings. in a particular situation.

But really, we find refuge under God's wings forever and ever and ever. And so it's good to know that God is not just there in the present. He's there in the future, and he's there for all eternity.

And what a comfort that is, that not only is our present circumstance covered, but every circumstance we will ever come into from now into eternity is also taken care of by God. Thank you for that comment. All right, other comments on the passage?

Please come now. YSI. Steve, YSI, go ahead.

Yeah, I'd just like to add a little bit more here to this from Psalm 119. I'll just read a few verses here. It says, "How blessed are those whose way is blameless." walk in the law of the Lord.

How blessed are those who observe his testimonies, who seek him with all their heart. We also do no unrighteousness, and walk in his ways. Thou hast ordained thy precepts that we should keep them diligently, so that my ways may be established by statute, and I shall not be ashamed.

I look upon all my commandments. And I think it just, I don't know, it speaks to my heart that we have to be concerned. I need to be concerned about my heart.

Where is my heart on a daily basis? And it's a real challenge. Thank you.

trying to keep all of this in perspective, I guess. W6YSI. Yeah, Steve, real good.

And I agree. You know, the essence of Christianity is that it's a heart religion. And, you know, as you read the Psalms, what are you reading?

You're reading what's going on inside of a man's heart. And what you see is this is no mere external formalism. This is no tossing God, you know, a token of acknowledgement and then going on with my life any old way I please.

Here is a person who has God as the central organizing principle of his thoughts and of his heart, and then, of course, the central organizing principle of his life. And so it is a challenge to each of us. Do I have this kind of heart relationship with God that David had?

Because this reveals... the nature of someone who truly has that heart of flesh, that new heart, that new nature that has been given to them. And so I trust that the challenge to each of us as we read these psalms is that do I talk to God in my heart?

the way David talks to God in his heart. And I think the reason why God lays open the heart of David in such a bare fashion before our eyes is to not only instruct us to... Christianity as a heart religion, but also to instruct us as to how we should be interacting with God in our hearts.

All right, Ted, and then we'd like to acknowledge Mark. Mark, good to have you with us here today. Appreciate you being here.

And let's see, I saw your call sign. There it is, W7UAR. Mark, thank you for being here.

W7UAR from Utah. All right, any other comments on the passage? Please come now.

WB7UAR. Roger, please go ahead. Yeah, I'm pondering some of the parallels between Absalom and his rebellion.

And some of the rebellion that is portrayed in like in Ezekiel 28:13-14 where he was in the very center, so to speak, of the throne and the refuge of God. And then on the day that you were created, you were prepared to be the one who was going to be the one who you were the anointed cherub who covers I placed you there absolute description of being perfect in the Bible is quite outstanding and I see some of this rebellion it says like a verse 15 of the ezekiel 28 from the day you were created until unrighteousness was found in you so I I think there's some everlasting covenant of Genesis 3:15 and the crisis that we find in Revelation 12 in some of the imagery of the, as you say, the Absalom parallel with the ultimate revolting of Lucifer. when He was right there and He was perfect until unrighteousness was found in Him.

So, yeah, I really resonated with the comment about the Davidic covenant. I heard that echoed in this psalm today. Over.

Yeah, Roger, well said. You know, Mark KJ7PVT encouraged us all when we read these psalms to look at it from four perspectives. First of all, how does this apply in David's life, what's going on with him?

Secondly, how does this apply to the Lord Jesus, of whom David is a foreshadowing? Is there anything in this psalm about Jesus? And then, of course, thirdly, what about me?

Is there anything in this psalm that relates to me? And then, fourthly, how does this psalm relate to eternity, to eschatology, to the heavenly state? And, you know, you are pointing out here, Roger, that this is just a picture of something larger than what's going on here.

Absalom, of course, represents Satan. And as you pointed out there in Ezekiel 28, verses 13 and following, You know, here Satan was made by God. He was perfect.

He was a favored, if you will, son of God, having been created by God. And yet he rebelled against God foolishly. And, of course, we know that that rebellion has gone on to this day.

And ultimately Satan will be cast into the lake of fire. And so here we have Absalom, you know, created by David through natural birth with the favored sons. was the one upon whom David had bestowed all of his favor, and yet he irrationally turned against his father, began to attack him, and tried to destroy him, just like Satan turns against God and tries to destroy him.

You remember he, in the person of Herod, tried to kill the Lord Jesus. as soon as he was born. And so there is a larger picture going on here of, as you said, the spiritual warfare that began at Genesis 3.15, where the seed of the woman was going to crush the seed of the serpent, and he was going to crush Satan's head.

and destroy him. So larger parallels here for sure, Roger, and thank you for pointing those out. All right, other comments, please come down.

Mark, KJ7PVT, go ahead. Thank you. Hello, this is the - I think I'll stop here.

...the way that they had, uh, the, the pictures together, they didn't have, uh, a person chapter. And then, uh, it goes on to say, "All baptized in Moses, clouded in the sea, all ate the same spiritual food, and all drank the same spiritual drink." or they say that that fearful rock that follows them is that rock that they've seen back here. Yeah, copy, Mark.

Thank you for that. Yeah, Mark is pointing out in verse 2 of our psalm, he says here, From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee when my heart is overwhelmed. Now here it is.

Lead me to the rock that is higher than I. And so he's saying that this psalm is in the middle of the Exodus section of the book of Psalms. and harkens back to the Exodus when God provided a rock for the children of Israel.

It says in 1 Corinthians 10 that followed them around and gave them water, as you recall. And it says that that rock was Christ. So really what David is saying here in verse 2 when he says, lead me to the rock that is higher than I, he's saying, lead me to the Lord Jesus Christ.

Lead me to that object of faith and trust that always accompanies me, that provides me with strength, that provides me with refuge, that provides me with protection, that provides me with stability. The Lord Jesus is that rock. And you know, when everything is chaos in our lives, There is a place of stability and security and protection to which we can go, and that is our rock, the Lord Jesus Christ.

And so, Mark, thank you for making that connection with Exodus and also with 1 Corinthians. chapter 10 okay maybe that's 2nd Corinthians chapter 10 anyway you guys can figure that out alright WB7MAX here looking for further comments please come now right thanks YSI go ahead Yeah, looking again at Psalm 119, I don't have the verse right in front of me right now because I got walked up, but just thinking about David crying out in that psalm, it's, oh, that my heart be established in that way. highways.

And that's the challenge for me each and every day. And I realize that I don't measure up somehow, somehow, you know, either in deed or thought. or not doing something, I fall short.

It just makes me realize more and more that without Jesus, without His righteousness, I would never be able to do a sojourn, if you will, in this tent, in this tabernacle. It's just very humbling. W6YSI.

Yeah, Steve, great comment. Every day we need to pray for our heart to be established. Because, you know, the battle for the Christian life is won and lost in the heart.

And, you know, the heart is where the focus of our faith is today. And, you know, it says in Psalm, strike that, it says in Proverbs chapter 4, in verse 23, keep thy heart with all diligence, for out of it are the issues of life. And as you said, that verse in Psalm 119, may my heart be established.

So these kind of psalms, well all the psalms actually, address what's the condition of my heart today. And as you said, every day we have to bring into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ, make sure our heart is right with God in humility, in faith, in confession of sin, in praise and worship. And so this is what Paul means when he says to me, "To live is Christ." Christ is a central organizing principle of his thoughts, of his inner man, of his speech, of his actions, of the choices he makes about life.

every circumstance that comes up in his life. So, Steve, thanks for reinforcing once again that all of us need to check our hearts, align our hearts, and orient our hearts around the Lord Jesus again and again and again all throughout the day, and that's what constitutes... spiritual mindedness and that's what constitutes a spiritual walk so let's guard our hearts with all diligence by informing our hearts with the word of God by putting our faith in the son of God and then bearing witness to our faith to those around us.

All right, we are out of time. I really enjoyed this study of Psalm 61 and the reflections on it. I appreciate all the comments.

Very helpful. What we're doing here is we're provoking one another to love and good works. And iron is sharpening iron.

And that's what these Bible studies are all about. And I really appreciate each of you offering your input to help sharpen others and to encourage and exhort each of us into a closer walk with Jesus. All right.

Are there any final prayer requests before Al leads us in prayer? Please come now with your prayer request. Okay, and five up.
