Psalm 67

This psalm has a lot to do with the righteous prospering and the how the wicked will eventually fall. My favorite two verse are familiar ones, verses 23-24:

The steps of a man are established by the LORD,
When he delights in his way,

Though he fall, he shall not be cast headlong,
For the LORD upholds his hand.

It's awesome to know that whatever we do, if we are following God, He'll direct us. We don't have to worry about what we're doing or whether it's the right decision, because if we have a relationship w/ Him, He'll make sure we make the right one.

I love the next verse too, though i think this is one of the few times i like the KJV version better, "Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down" (i think that's right). If we fall, it is not for good, God will raise us up again, He is always there for us, and that's a great comfort.
