| 0:00.0 | The Lord lifts up those who are bowed down. Psalm 146, verse 8. |
| 0:07.7 | Welcome to this daily encouragement from our daily bread. |
| 0:11.9 | Seeing with God's heart was written by Monica LaRose and read by Rochelle Troub. |
| 0:31.2 | Psalm 146. Praise the Lord. Praise the Lord my soul. I will praise the Lord all my life. I will sing praise to my God as long as I live. Do not put your trust in princes in human beings who cannot save. When their spirit departs, |
| 0:41.8 | they return to the ground. On that very day their plans come to nothing. Blessed are those |

| 1:54.6 | obeying their mother's frantic command to hide. All night, they huddled underneath the sanctuary |
| 2:00.6 | of a tree. The sun appeared in the |
| 2:03.6 | morning, but not our parents, Shantel recounts. She and her siblings were now orphans and refugees, |
| 2:12.3 | joining tens of thousands in a refugee camp. When we hear stories like Chantels, it can be tempting to turn away |
