"You are my refuge and my shield; I have put my hope in Your word. Away from me, you evildoers, that I may keep the commands of my God! Sustain me according to Your promise, and I will live; do not let my hopes be dashed." Psalms 119:114-116 (NIV)
This unknown author is alternating between praising God and pleading with God for His help and protection. He is reminding God of His promise to sustain His people (Psalms 55:22 & Psalms 89:21).
God is our protector and our provider. He gives us strength for each day and hope for the future. In Him shall we put out faith and trust. According to His word, we can cast all of our cares upon Him and He will sustain us.
