Golgotha - place of pain Personal Application • God keeps us through storms, not always from them • Our experiences of God's keeping power Making the Psalms Your Own • Example: Dan Wilt's prayer based on Psalm 121 Conclusion • God is our constant, all-encompassing protector • "My help comes from the Lord, Who made heaven and earth"
