He has shattered gates of bronze And cut bars of iron asunder. Psalm 107:16 God wants us to be victors, not victims; to grow, not grovel; to soar, not sink; to overcome, not to be overwhelmed. William Arthur Ward, 1812-82
They cried out to the Lord in their trouble (that they had brought on themselves); He saved them out of their distresses. Psalm 107:19 If you look at the world, you’ll be distressed.

He caused the storm to be still, So that the waves of the sea were hushed. He guided them to their desired haven. Psalm 107:29-30b As our perpetual guide, He hath proportioned a way and a path to our strength and capacities. Jeremy Taylor, 1613-67, Church of England cleric, author
He turned the wasteland into pools of water and the parched ground into flowing springs; there he brought the hungry to live. Psalm 107:35,36a God’s children shall be filled if they will only hunger and thirst after what he offers. Anon
