0:05.7	Psalm chapter 94 verse 19. When the cares of my heart are many, your consolations cheer my soul.
0:13.9	Is that not a great verse? That is a verse worth memorizing, hiding in your heart, especially
0:20.5	for hard to arc days. When the cares of my heart are many, how often is that true? In our lives,
0:28.4	there's just so many different cares on our heart concerns and our hearts are burdened by many
0:35.2	things. I would just confess that describes my life right now and I'm guessing I'm not alone,
0:41.6	that there are many of us for whom we have many cares on our hearts. Many things that are heavy
