Reflection question: This Psalm by originally have been used when the people of Israel were preparing for war. What do you think are appropriate prayers during times of war?
I think appropriate prayers are for the safety of our soldiers, and an end to the war/conflict. I loved the words in this Psalm. Almost like a blessing. "May he send you help.. grant you support....may he give you the desire of your heart.. and make all your plans succeed. May the Lord grant all your requests. We trust in the name of the Lord." We have many battles in our lives. God is there for us through them all. Amen.
