Psalms 42:6. O my God, my soul is cast down within me:
Is it not a blessed thing that, even when he is down, he says, " Oh, my God"? He gets hold of his God. He has lost his company, but he has not lost his God. See-"my soul"--"my God." His God is as much his as his soul is his. He puts them together-"my God"-"my soul."
Psalms 42:6. Therefore will I remember thee from the land of Jordan, and of the Hermonites, from the hill Mizar.
Were these places where he was then wandering? He would remember God wherever he was. He would remember happier days, seasons long past when he did walk in fellowship with God. So let us remember how he kept his tryst with us in former days of sorrow,-how he manifested himself unto us as he does not to the world. He will do the same now. Let us be of good courage.
