Bible Comments

Be merciful unto me, O God, be merciful unto me, for it is only the unmerited favor of God to which David appeals; for my soul trusteth in Thee, seeking refuge with the Lord alone; yea, in the shadow of Thy wings, a figure pointing out, in a most impressive manner, the full security under God's protection, Deuteronomy 22:11; Psalms 91:1; Matthew 23:37, will I make my refuge, until these calamities, the mischiefs put in operation by his enemies, be overpast, until there is no longer a sign of the ruinous danger threatening his life.
