Watch this: God’s eye is on those who respect him, the ones who are looking for his love. He’s ready to come to their rescue in bad times; in lean times he keeps body and soul together.
Ever seen bad times? If not, just wait - everyone sees them sooner or later.
In the bad times of my life, God was my lifeboat. He gave me health professionals, other experts, friends, colleagues, fellow believers - the list can go on and on. With these resources, he kept my body and soul together time and time again.
Notice that the Psalm writer didn't say you won't face bad times; just that God is with you even during those times.
Another compelling part of the verses from The Message, kind of a combo commentary and Bible reference, talks about people who are looking for God's love. We're hard-wired, it seems, in our search for love.
Know that God's love is always there for you, coming to your rescue, keeping body and soul together.
