“Show me the wonders of your great love ...” (v7). The psalmist saw that living as if our “reward is in this life” leads to selfish, harmful (even violent) choices, and he made a choice to follow God’s path’s (v1-5). Surrounded by violent enemies, he claimed refuge in God, to whom he belonged. He cried out for more than safety; he wanted to be the “apple” of God’s eye, enjoying close fellowship with the Creator who knows each one of us intimately (v8). 

“Hide me in the shadow of your wings” (v7-8). The battles we face in this world – physical, emotional, or spiritual – can leave us feeling exposed and alone. The Lord invites us to come close and rest in his great love for us.
