Scripture
Verse for Today
I looked on my right hand, and beheld, but there was no man that would know me: refuge failed me; no man cared for my soul.
(Psalm 142:4)
One of the saddest statements of the Bible must be, “No man cared for my soul.” David
prayed this prayer while hiding in a cave from King Saul’s wrath. He must have been a very lonely
person with few true friends. He was hunted as a criminal by Saul and knew not if he would survive to see
the sunrise. At that moment he had no idea what a great life God had planned for him: how he would become
Israel’s greatest king, the beloved psalmist, and an ancestor of the Messiah.
Remember, when you are in the valley and think no one cares, God knows your situation and He cares. Be
faithful, victory is just ahead! ~
