Psalms 73-God is good to those with a good pure heart. The wicked live without care. They think they don't need God. Instead go boast about the Lord and spread he word about his good deeds.
Psalms 74- He thinks the Lord has rejected them. The beginning of this chapter is harder for me to understand. Towards the end of the chapter it is a bit more easier for me to understand. People are mocking others which means making fun of each other. The Lord will rise up and protect you.
Pslams 75- We will praise God and spread the word of his wonderful deeds. God says to the "boastful" people, "do not boast anymore." God is the judge.
Psalms 76- God is well known in Judah. The Lord is glorious. He fulfills your life!
Psalms 77- When in trouble or fear seek God and praise him. He is the God of many wonders!
Psalms 78- The people will listen to he Lords teaching because it is not false teachings! Boast about his deeds and the wonders he has done. He brought the people to the holy land, and the people rejected and rebelled.

Good points Emma. I really liked what you put for Psalm 73,it was a very good summary of 73. I agree that the wicked or ungodly live without care and a need for God. It was also interesting that the writer almost wanted to be like the wicked in the middle of the Psalm but then realized that God was better.
74- it sounds like the writer is getting tired of his enemies mocking God and is remembering all the good things God has done. And he is calling him to take down those against him.
75- I liked the first verse when it talks about giving thanks to God. I want to be thankful for everything God has given me.
76- this psalm just taps about God's power and how no one can oppose Him.
77- Verse 13 and 14 "Your ways, O God, are holy. What god is so great as our God? You are the God who performs miracles; you display your power among the peoples"

73- did like what you said Emma. Need to have that pure heart and so many times it can feel as we are in the edge about ready to fall of or be tempted like these first two verses. So many times we can envy or covet what others have especially when they do well or maybe by their looks just can seem like some people have it all together. If this is the case that these people looks like they have everything but I am the one having the pure heart and doing the things that are right and true why is it so hard for me, I have asked that question before. My health may fail and spirit grow weak but God remains the strength of my heart he is mine forever really neat verse there
74- just remember that we were your chosen people and just pray that you never forget us and all the we have worked for. Just show us something that we are still your people! Defend your cause and help us.
75- I try to tell people to stay try to you and keep them in line. God alone is our judge and he is the ultimate Decider
76- God is who we honor and praise and this is where he lives he lives with us to help guide and protect is. We praise him for the things he has done and made for us- no wonder everybody fears our God.
77- why have your forgotten us as I cry to you just help me. Another plea for help even as I pray and can't sleep for everything is bothering me. But even through all of this still praises Him for everything!!

73- Sometimes it just seems unfair that wicked people seem to get everything. If you remain faithful you will be rewarded for your perseverance. Their earthly wealth is temporary it does not last. Pureness does last it will be with you for ever and ever. Invest your time in something that will last!
74- At school and other public places it seems like no one cares about God they only want to break his law and curse in his name. Don't fall in to their stupid ways! The Lord created all we continue to praise him!
75- One day no one except for the Father knows when. On this day all righteous or not will bow down and he will judge them. Do not wait! The time is near! Do not worry about punishing the wicked God will do that for you.
76-God is stronger and greater who can stand before him. Fear him, throw away your pride do not think you are as great as him.
77- The walls are closing in everything is falling apart. where is God! Remember what the Lord has done. Remember his mighty deeds. Then ask your self has he really abandoned you. He will guild us we must be patient.
Really like the Psalms that Asaph writes!
