Psalms of Ascent

Yes and Amen David!! Have a Blessed day my friend(s)!

I love the Psalms

Reading: Psalm 120
A song of ascents.

Woe to me that I dwell in Meshek,
that I live among the tents of Kedar!
Too long have I lived
among those who hate peace.
I am for peace;
but when I speak, they are for war (NIV).*
