He is so Good!

In my Bible study today, I read something that I just had to share, especially in light of another discussion going on in a different blog.

Psalm 129:1-5
"Since my youth they have often attacked me - let Israel say -
Since my youth they have often attacked me, but they have not prevailed against me.
Plowmen plowed over my back, they made their furrows long.
The Lord is righteous, He has cut the ropes of the wicked.
Let all who hate Zion be driven back in disgrace."

Study notes:
The enemy, the world system, and our own flesh try to convince us that we're free when we are out from under authority and can do as we please. The Bible and life experience teach us something completely different. Only under the umbrella of God's trustworthy, for-us authority do we find our spacious place.
Only He can clarify our clouded belief systems.
Beth Moore, Stepping Up

Today, this was an reassuring answer to prayer.
