Psalm 16:9-11

This is a Psalm of David, but I am unsure of when he wrote it. To me, it sounds like a prayer to God. (You know, just talking to Him.) David seems to be thanking Him for His provision, protection, and blessings.

Our verses are David rejoicing in rest from the LORD and the fact that when a Christian dies, their souls goes to Heaven to be with God.

In verse 11, David is thanking God for showing him the way of life and granting him the JOY of God’s presence. We have access to God’s presence all the time because we have Holy Spirit in us. God’s presence should bring joy. A lot of times for me, I end up crying - it brings such awe and wonder! What does the joy of God’s presence feel like to you?
