God 1) hears my request for relief, 2) sees the relentlessness of the wicked, and 3) provides respite when I yield to His word. Each listener should take comfort in knowing that God hears, sees, and provides when His people are persecuted.
We are what we think; if we allow evil things to permeate our thoughts, then our ways will be evil as well.
