Psalms 34 MSG

I bless God every chance I get; 

my lungs expand with his praise. 

I live and breathe God; 

if things aren't going well, 

hear this and be happy: 

...

God met me more than halfway, 

he freed me from my anxious fears. 

Look at him; 

give him your warmest smile. 

Never hide your feelings from him. 

When I was desperate, 

I called out, 

and God got me out of a tight spot. 

God's angel sets up a circle of protection around us while we pray. Open your mouth and taste, 

open your eyes and see - how good God is.

Blessed are you who run to him. 

Worship God if you want the best; 

worship opens doors to all his goodness. 

...

Come, 

children, 

listen closely; 

I'll give you a lesson in God worship. 

Who out there has a lust for life? 

Can't wait each day to come upon beauty? Guard your tongue from profanity, and no more lying through your teeth. Turn your back on sin; do something good.

 Embrace peace - don't let it get away! 

God keeps an eye on his friends, 

his ears pick up every moan and groan. 

...

Is anyone crying for help? 

God is listening, ready to rescue you. 

If your heart is broken, youll find God right there; 

if you're kicked in the gut, hell help you catch your breath. 

Disciples so often get into trouble; 

still, 

God is there every time. 

...

The wicked commit slow suicide; they waste their lives hating the good.

God pays for each slave's freedom; 

no one who runs to him loses out.
