Finding God in All Things
I sometimes ponder whether it’s possible to “find God in ALL things”? And, as I think about it, almost inevitably, two things pop up for me almost immediately: where should I be looking and, how will I go about this?
Psalm 5 Devotion: A Morning Prayer
If Psalm 4 frames the Jewish evening as an example of prayer for us, then Psalm 5 frames the Jewish morning. “In the morning, Lord, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait expectantly.”
Psalm 4 Devotion: An Evening Prayer
David gives us Psalm 4 which we could read, meditate on, pray to God, or sing in the evening before we go to sleep. As he wrote this psalm, I wonder if he thought of his time as a shepherd boy in the fields. Did he look at a starry sky like this and talk to God?
Psalm 3 Devotion: When Everyone is Against Us
Have you ever felt ganged up on? Like everyone is against you? Like attacks are coming from all directions and you just can’t catch a break?
We may have all felt this way at one time or another for a variety of reasons.
Psalm 2 Devotion: On Being on the Winning Team
God knows what the kings and nations of the earth do not – He has the very top player on His team. He calls this player “Son.” He has anointed this player above any others, and He would give this player anything he asks.
Psalm 1 Devotion: A Tree Planted by a Stream
What does it mean to “be a disciple”? In the Christian context, a disciple is one who follows Jesus. If we are going to seek to be disciples of Jesus, then we are wise to look to scripture to help us know the way to follow. We begin with Psalm 1. This psalm sets two paths in front of us: the way of the wicked and the way of the blessed. The word “blessed” in scripture catches my attention.
