A dear friend died tragically in a car crash (21/9/11). I was devastated and questioned why would God take away this strong christian man at this time... I am greatly comforted by this psalm understanding more that God in His infinite wisdom will comfort us in time of sorrow but will weep no more because He gives us a brighter tomorrow. All of you who lost a dear one be comforted as we pray in earnest, His peace will come upon us to sustain us during these sad times...God bless you.
God's word is so awesome! I have been feeling really down lately with the circumstances of life. I read this Psalm and realized that so much of what I have been feeling have been attacks from the enemy of my soul. God encouraged me and made me realize that the battle belongs to Him, He will protect me and He has defeated the enemy. Wow! i feel so much better. Levita, God so spoke to me in what you posted...It is amazing how God in our lives makes us so different from those around us, even those very near us. I have prayed for you, and for you also Sue. God is Great!
I love the psalms, but today I decided to read psalms 3 and left me in shock. This whole day i've been down, but once i read this i felt like God was talking to me. i've been having a hard time with my cousin, half brother and half sister. They've been acting like the 12 brother's from the story of Joseph towards me.Their all in trouble with the law and are stressed.im not in problems instead(going to school and work) I was looking down but now i'm looking up and know that God intended for us to be with our head held high and that no one can touch us without God giving the authority.:"Bigger is he that is in me than he who is in the world"... Tomorrow marks 1 year since my brother's death and i know that God will put the peace. Please pray for peace in my family.Thankyou and God Bless

Medical conditions called for a high dose of steroids for a long period of time. Sleep deprivation set in affecting me physically and emotionally. After reading this chapter, I cried out to Him that night. I, like David, laid down and slept ... 5 hours straight ... it was truly God answering my prayer and blessing me! His Word IS a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path.
