Psalms 124:2-4 -- On Protection and Sides

"If it had not been the Lord who was on our side, when men rose up against us:
Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us:
Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul:"
Psalms 124:2-4


This is a good reminder of how much the Lord helps us, and is on our side.  It's interesting though, because the same verses could be for someone else, on the other side, right?  The difference, I think, is whether *we* are on the Lord's side, and doing his will.  If we are, then he will be on our side too... because we are on the same side.  If we're not on the same side, then we're in danger of the stream going over our soul... but it is also easy to save ourselves from drowning.  All we have to do is repent and turn back to the Lord, and make sure we are on the same side.  If we do, then our souls are safe.

Today, let's make sure that God is on our side, by being on his. :)
