" Three things come to mind as we look at this text: (1) we are theological amnesiacs; (2) the psalmist reminds us that God really is in charge; and (3) only when we feel weak and helpless, whether young or old, are we vulnerable enough to experience the power and grace of a God who “raises us up on eagle’s wings.” So, this text is about us, about God and what God does with us when all we seem to be is down.
