I met David a really long time ago. Neither of us were cool bloggers back then…but now, one of us is. And I don’t think it’s me. :-)

One of my favorite hymns of all time has part of its root in Psalm 71:17-18:

O God, do not forsake me,
until I proclaim your might to another generation,
your power to all those to come.
19Your righteousness, O God,

Even down to old age all my people shall prove
