But I am a worm and not a man, scorned by mankind and despised by the people. All who see me mock me; they make mouths at me; they wag their heads; “He trusts in the LORD; let him deliver him; let him rescue him, for he delights in him!”
Yes, Lord, the world thinks I am foolish to trust in You for all my protection and sustenance but they are wrong. The world without You, lacks the hope and surety that in all things, You are working for my good. Trials and tribulations abound, but Your Shalom sustains me, Your love covers me and I know that I will be brought into that glorious light where all the saints will be gathered to praise You.
