Psalms in the world ... Psalm 111

When you hear the word "food" what comes to mind, like in verse 5 of this psalm? Your favorite meal? Your favorite snack? I must admit that is what usually comes to mind when I hear that word. And yet for some, for far too many, it is this buiding. We are ever thankful that places like this exist and ever offer of our hearts and yet it does challenge us that there are those who do not have enough "food" to eat. May we be guided by the "works of (God's) hands" toward faithfulness and justice as we give thanks for all of life's necessities - like food.

Psalms in the world ... Psalm 62

The first line of this Psalm called out to me today, specifically one word - silence. There is so much noise in our lives these days. Some of it good, some of it not, but all of it can be noise in one way or another. The setting for this Psalm (Ashley Lake, MT) just called out to me and said read me here. It was a moving place to be and I hope it moves you too.

Psalms in the world ... Psalm 139

Today I'm looking back, a little bit. I'm at home with a child who is feeling under the weather and where the Psalm says "you knit me together in my mother's womb" I couldn't help but remember all these moments with my children. I hope you will post back a picture of you as a child or of your own children growing up. Let us share in the joy of the God who "marvously made" all of us and especially those we love the most. Blessings everyone!

Psalms in the world ... Psalm 29

What power there is in the "voice of the Lord"!? When have you, like rolling thunder in a summer storm, experienced God's voice? Was it reassuring? Challenging? Uplifting? Experience this Psalm anew as we hear about God's voice again this day.
