Placing my hope in the Lord

5 Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the Lord his God,
6 who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, who keeps faith forever;
7 who executes justice for the oppressed, who gives food to the hungry. The Lord sets the prisoners free;
8 the Lord opens the eyes of the blind. The Lord lifts up those who are bowed down; the Lord loves the righteous.
9 The Lord watches over the sojourners; he upholds the widow and the fatherless, but the way of the wicked he brings to ruin.
(Psalm 146, ESV)

Placing my hope in the Lord would mean (to me) persevering in loving mercy, acting justly and walking humbly before HIM who made heaven and earth, who keeps faith forever and whose concern is foremost for the oppressed, the marginalised, the powerless.
