LORD, how they have

   me!

  Many are they who rise up

   against me,

  Many are they who say of

   me,

"There is no help for him in

    God."

But You, O LORD, are a

   shield for me,

My glory and the One who

   lifts up my head.

I cried to the LORD with my

   voice,

And He heard me from His

   holy hill.

I lay down and slept;

I awoke, for the LORD

   sustained me.

I will not be afraid of ten

   thousands of people

Who have set themselves

   against me all round.

Arise, O LORD;

Save me, O my God!

For You have struck all my

   enemies on the

   cheekbone;

You have broken the teeth

   of the ungodly.

Salvation belongs to the

   LORD.

Your blessing is upon Your

   people.                     Selah

Psalm 3 NKJV

Cumberland Island, Georgia - "Planted by the Rivers of Water"

 

Blessed is the man

Who walks not in the

   counsel of the

   ungodly,

 Nor stands in the path of

   sinners,

  Nor sits in the seat of the

   scornful;

But his delight is in the 

   law of the LORD,

  And in His law he

   mediates day and

   night.

He shall be like a tree

 Planted by the rivers of

   water,

 That bring forth its fruit

   in its season,

 Whose leaf also shall not

  wither;

And whatever he does shall

   prosper.

Psalm 1:1-3 NKJV

Jekyll Island, Georgia - "Blessed are All Those who put their Trust in Him"

Why do the nations rage,

And the people plot a vain 

   thing?

The kings of the earth set 

   themselves,

And the rulers take 

   counsel together,

Against the LORD and 

   against His Anointed,

   saying, 

"Let us break Their bonds

    in pieces

And cast away Their cords 

   from us."

He who sits in the heavens 

   shall laugh;

The LORD shall hold them 

   in derision,

Then He shall speak to

    them in His wrath,

And distress them in His 

   deep displeasure;

"Yet I have set My King 

On My holy hill of Zion."

"I will declare the decree:

The LORD has said to ME, 

You are My Son,

Today I have begotten You.  

Ask of Me, and I will give 

   You 

The nations for Your 

   inheritance,

And the ends of the earth

   for Your possession.

You shall break them with 

   a rod of iron;

You shall dash them in

   pieces like a potter's 

   vessel."

Now therefore, be wise, O

   kings;

Be instructed, you judges of

   the earth.

Serve the LORD with fear,

And rejoice with trembling.

Kiss the Son, lest He be

   angry,

And you perish in the way,

When His wrath is kindled

   but a little.

Blessed are all those who

   put their trust in Him.

Psalm 2 NKJV
