“I love you, O Lord, my strength” (v1). The psalmist’s heart-felt declaration was born out of his experience with the Lord. When he was in desperate trouble and cried out, God heard him and came to rescue him. “He sent from on high; he took me, he drew me out of many waters” (v16). Over and over, the psalmist experienced God’s faithfulness in dark times. “The LORD my God lightens my darkness. For by you I can run against a troop, and by my God I can leap over a wall” (v28-29).
“He rescued me, because He delighted in me” (v19). When we realize our own need and call out to God, we experience His great love for us.
