Psalm 34:15-22

The eyes of the LORD are toward the righteous and his ears toward their cry. The face of the LORD is against those who do evil, to cut off the memory of them from the earth. When the righteous cry for help, the LORD hears and delivers them out of all their troubles. The LORD is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit. Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the LORD delivers him out of them all. He keeps all his bones; not one of them is broken. Affliction will slay the wicked, and those who hate the righteous will be condemned. The LORD redeems the life of his servants; none of those who take refuge in him will be condemned.

To hear You cry, "Mine" is to know that I am Yours. To know that I am Yours is to know that I am a child of the King. To know that I am I child of the King is to know that I have been accepted into the royal family and that all is forgiven. To know that all is forgiven is to know that I have the righteousness, peace and joy that is the Kingdom of God at my beck and call.
