Praying the Psalms
|
|
I joined a Tuesday night Encounter Group at my church. Each week, we are doing a study of one of the Psalms. I’ve discovered, as of late, that there is much comfort (and inspiration) to be found in these studies. David, in the desert of Judah (Psalm 63): “My soul thirsts for you. My body longs for you. In a dry and weary land where this is no water… My soul will be satisfied as with the richest of foods.” This actually came to mind over the weekend when I was preparing a grilled sandwich for my partner’s son. It smelled wonderful. I longed for the taste… brought back by fond memories. However, in the quiet of my mind I said a quick prayer, asking to be satisfied and grateful for that which I was partaking – something raw and green. Saying a quick prayer, my soul was satisfied and I felt content.
