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.
