Analysis Of Psalm 121

    From reading Psalm 121, the speaker gives none to little insight on what the song is really about. Being that if reader 1 does not know of the Bible versus reader 2 who does, yet, reader 1 can still have the same or different meaning as reader 2. Verse 1 explains how someone should what he or she is looking for. If the person knows,then he or she has already themaselves in a way. God made heaven and earth, therefore, He can do just about anything. So putting in effort to one being comfortable and confident, God will help those trusting him in Verse 2. The next verse is explaing God not letting anyone fall into temptation. One who does fall into the temptation suffer the consequences. Even though the other one did not fall still experience more desires and urges. The reasoning behind Verse 4 is a leader, not just of Israel, not sleeping because of leadership and its people. As a leader or keeper, that specific person fulfills his or her people needs, ideas, wants or not. Because some leaders are harsh and only wanted to be a leader for other reasons.
    Onto to next, which is Verse 5, God's watching all over his people. Basically he is right there for anybody needing him. In Verse 6, the sun and moon by night should not be damaging us. Though through day and night, some people are deceitful, but God protects. In Verse 7, it does not literally mean God preventing all evil, however, some of physical and some of mental. Finally in Verse 8, one is always under God's safety. Also noting if a person is constantly doing expected and unexpected things, then he or she will not be able to anymore.

Troy is the father of a idealistic musician, archangel son, and a inspiring football player, Rose is his wife. Troy is blunt to anybody. Rose is the typical mother wanting to decide what's better for her and her kids. Gabriel, who himself is to believed to be the archangel, was shot in the head, but has a metal plate.
