This psalm describes the experience of someone who is in the midst of fear. We will learn how to move from fear to confident trust in God by speaking truth to ourselves and expressing our feelings, beliefs and petitions to God. Sean Fitzpatrick shares his experience with trusting God in the midst of fear.

This psalm focuses on God's amazing character and is instrumental in cultivating a vibrant relationship with God. It unpacks God's grace to all people, God's authority over all things now and forever, and God's power that sustains us in a broken world. As we praise God in prayer, we will experience intimacy with Him and deep joy in our soul.

The psalmist explores God's awe-inspiring knowledge, presence, and creativity. He is amazed to discover that he is fully known and yet accepted completely, that God is always present wherever he goes and that God reveals his beautiful creativity in nature and uniquely in human beings. We will look at three responses to these incredible truths: to delight in God's thoughts, to have a sensitized conscience, and to be totally open before God.
