Hello and welcome to Week 14 of Bible 180. We are more than halfway through this session of reading the Bible cover to cover together. How exciting is that?
We are more than knee deep in the Psalms, and this week we will cross over into not only Proverbs but also Ecclesiastes. Whew!
One of the things I love about the Psalms is how we come across the longings and deep feelings of those that are writing. We see joy, we see deep sorrow, and in both we see a strong reliance on the Lord. I love how the Holy Spirit shows us how to cry out to our Father in all sorts of situations… and that it is okay to be true to our feelings. The only mistake, it seems, is not leaning on Him.
My pen was busy writing down prayers to emulate. I wrote them in my journal, in my day planner and on index cards now posted in front of me at my desk.
“Teach me your way, O Lord, and I will walk in your truth;
give me an undivided heart, that I may fear your name.
I will praise you, O Lord my God, with all my heart;
I will glorify your name forever
For great is your love toward me;
you have delivered me from the depth of the grave.
–Psalm 86: 11-13
Isn’t that just so beautiful?
I pray that the words you read every day, His words, are reaching you deeply, that you hear Him as you read, and that the words echo in your heart after you read.
I know they are for me.
Check in, please
