Psalm 138:6

"For though the LORD is high, he regards the lowly, but the haughty he knows from afar." -Psalm 138:6

Humility of spirit brings us closer to Him.  Self-sufficiency separates us.

"The LORD will fulfill his purpose for me."  -Psalm 138:8

Such a comforting promise---His hand is in His purposes for my life.

The Lord Will Perfect That Which Concerns Me

"The assurance we have that whatever good work God has begun in and for his people he will perform it (Psa_138:8): The Lord will perfect that which concerns me, 1. That which is most needful for me; and he knows best what is so. We are careful and cumbered about many things that do not concern us, but he knows what are the things that really are of consequence to us (Mat_6:32) and he will order them for the best." -Matthew Henry
