In you, O LORD, do I take refuge; let me never be put to shame! In your righteousness deliver me and rescue me; incline your ear to me, and save me! Be to me a rock of refuge, to which I may continually come; you have given the command to save me, for you are my rock and my fortress. Rescue me, O my God, from the hand of the wicked, from the grasp of the unjust and cruel man. For you, O Lord, are my hope, my trust, O LORD, from my youth.
This is a statement of the totality of the love and concern of the LORD, God the Almighty. How can I be so self-centered to reject so gracious and generous offer. He has given the command to save me; I must believe/trust/commit/obey or suffer what I so richly deserve.
