(Psalm 16:1-6)…..Preserve me, O God, for in You I put my trust. 2 O my soul, you have said to the Lord, “You are my Lord, my goodness is nothing apart from You.” 3 As for the saints who are on the earth, “they are the excellent ones, in whom is all my delight.” 4 Their sorrows shall be multiplied who hasten after another god; Their drink offerings of blood I will not offer, nor take up their names on my lips. 5 O Lord, You are the portion of my …

Pastor Dan Nickerson preaches from 1 Thessalonians 5:19-22
(Psalm 18:1)…..I will love You, O Lord, my strength. Notice David’s declaration here of his feelings towards God.
