I have become a sign to many; you are my strong refuge

 Psalm 71:1-24 

Be my rock of refuge, to which I can always go; give the command to save me, for you are my rock and my fortress. Deliver me, my God, from the hand of the wicked, from the grasp of those who are evil and cruel.

I have become a sign to many; you are my strong refuge. My mouth is filled with your praise, declaring your splendor all day long.

I will come and proclaim your mighty acts, Sovereign Lord; I will proclaim your righteous deeds, yours alone. Since my youth, God, you have taught me, and to this day I declare your marvelous deeds. Even when I am old and gray, do not forsake me, my God, till I declare your power to the next generation, your mighty acts to all who are to come.

At the end of a long and troubled life there is still no let-up. But trouble has schooled the psalmist in trust. Nothing can make him despair. As long as God is with him, the future is full of hope.

Why?

I have become a sign to many for I have told others God's grace on me and have witnessed God's great work on me. God is my strong refuge, I will declare God's splendor all day long.

Even when I am old and gray, do not forsake me, this is my prayer too. May I can declare God's power to the next generation, God's mighty acts to all who are to come.

God is with me, then the future is full of hope. Be humble and keep working on the right way with good deed every day.

How?

Rejoice and praise to the Lord all day long! My God is mountain mover, My God is my rock and my refuge.
