Psalms 145:1-21

145:14 | The Lord upholds is not only His name but His nature. He supports the godly who fall on life’s path. He also raises up those who are bowed down. The image is of a reed wilted under the heat of the sun or bent by the blasts of the wind.

145:19-20 | Fear and love are the inseparable elements of true religion. Fear preserves love from degenerating into presumptuous familiarity; love prevents fear from becoming a servile dread.
