    In verse 26 it says that God is the strength of my heart and my "portion" forever. What does "portion" mean in lay terms?

    Ann. Looking at the Hebrew for this word (in Psalm 73:26) & also its use in Psalm 119:57 & elsewhere, the most applicable meaning to the word 'portion', would be 'possession'. In both cases, the Psalmists delight in having God as their possession & the converse being true also, that they also delighted God and were His possession.

    Thank you for clarifying that for me.
