Today is a beautiful day, because King David prayed, “Hear my cry, O God; ​​Attend to my prayer. ​​From the end of the earth I will cry to You, ​​When my heart is overwhelmed; ​​Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

​​For You have been a shelter for me, ​​A strong tower from the enemy. ​​I will abide in Your tabernacle forever; ​​I will trust in the shelter of Your wings. Selah
​
​​For You, O God, have heard my vows; ​​You have given me the heritage of those who fear Your name. ​​You will prolong the king’s life, ​​His years as many generations. ​​He shall abide before God forever. ​​Oh, prepare mercy and truth, which may preserve him!
​

​​So I will sing praise to Your name forever, ​​That I may daily perform my vows.” (Psalms 61 NKJV)
