Journal Starter for Psalm 16
In Psalm 16:1, David says that God is his refuge. David goes to God for safety.
Write about a time God helped you.
We are often tempted to run to idols (maybe food, sex, money, alcohol, or the internet) when we are afraid or stressed. In this psalm David says that those who run to other gods suffer more and more.
Tell God/write about the things that stress you and make you feel afraid.
What do you do when you are stressed or afraid? Is there a difference in the way you feel when you go to God versus when you go to other things? How do you feel about your choices afterward?

One way God took care of me this year was through leading me to Isaiah 46. This passage of scripture is so powerful...it sets my heart on fire with worship and confidence in God! Recently my husband and I received some difficult news, but this passage continues to ring in my ears and fill me with love for God.
I think God used this passage of scripture throughout the year to prepare my heart for the situation I am going through right now.
