Staggering Taste

Are you like the people in this psalm, staggering under the weight of your worries? 

Psalm 60:2-3 (NIV)
You have shaken the land and torn it open;
mend its fractures, for it is quaking.
You have shown your people desperate times;
you have given us wine that makes us stagger.

Or, rephrased by Isaac Watts:

“The terror of one frown of thine
Melts all our strength away;
Like men that totter drunk with wine,
We tremble in dismay.”
The Psalms of David, Psalm 60

Does a taste of terror make you stumble?

Walk by faith–taste the goodness of the Lord.
