"Let not the foot of pride come against me, and let not the hand of the wicked remove me." (Psalm 36:11)

The contrast in this psalm is not only between good and evil, but more specifically between the prideful man who lives without fear of God and the God in whom godly men trust.

"I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live." (Deuteronomy 30:19)

"Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." (Hebrews 11:1)

The eleventh chapter of Hebrews, known as the great Hall of Fame of Faith reciting the faith and resulting action of many Old Testament heroes, begins with a description of what faith is.

Situated just to the northeast of Dallas County is the county of Rockwall, with its capital city Rockwall, both derived from the frequent occurrence of underground rock "walls" that crop up around the area. On occasion, intrepid Texans have dug down beside a wall to see how far it goes, but they’ve never reached the bottom.

"Of the Rock that begat thee thou art unmindful, and hast forgotten God that formed thee." (Deuteronomy 32:18)
