Sunday Psalms:

But your loyal love, 
LORD, 
extends 
to the skies; 
your faithfulness 
reaches 
the clouds.
Your righteousness 
is like 
the strongest mountains; your justice 
is like 
the deepest sea. 
LORD, 
you save 
both humans 
and animals. 
Your 
faithful love 
is priceless, 
God!
Humanity finds 
refuge 
in the shadow 
of your wings. 
They feast 
on the bounty 
of your house; 
you let them drink 
from your river 
of pure joy. 
Within you 
is the spring of life. 
In your light, 
we see 
light.
Psalms 36:5-9 CEB
So many pictures in this Psalm, this song. Pictures of love, faithfulness, righteousness and justice. 
Pictures of who God is, and who we are in relation to Him. 
Which one grabs your eye?
What do you need today?
This song wants to engage our imagination - will you let it?
Can you find a moment to sit with the picture that jumps off the page for you, grab a pencil and doddle a picture, or write some words that flow from or connect with the word picture of the Psalm?
Give it a go.

Joseph replied..."Dont you see, you planned evil against me but God used those same plans for my good, as you see all around you right now - life for many people..." Genesis 50:19-20 MSG The view from the drone. The different perspective. "God has been at work in my life despite, in fact within the hatred that you had towards me. Even though I couldn't always see it, I kept trusting Him, even when He was silent, when all hope seemed lost... God was at work... Can you see that now?" #faith #faithinthedark
Genesis 15.8-18.ESV But he said O Lord God , how am I to know that I shall possess it? ...When the sun had gone down and it was dark, behold, a smoking fire pot and a flaming torch passed between these pieces. On that day the Lord made a covenant with Abram... March 15 was the last day we looked at Abram's story...he was questioning God and this is God's response...sacrifices and smoke and fire and a covenant...a promise... Isn't that what we crave for sometimes? God, if only you'd just show me smoke & fire, a burning bush a sign, miracle, healing...then all my questions would disappear...all my doubts would be gone... 2moro we'll see Abram's response but I think God values our faith in spite of our questions and doubts. That we choose Him anyway #faith
Psalm 42.1-11.nlt As the deer longs for streams of water, so I long for you, O God... I thirst for God, the living God. When can I go and stand before him? O God my rock l cry, Why have you forgotten me? Why must I wander around in grief, oppressed by my enemies? Their taunts break my bones. They scoff, Where is this God of yours? Why am I discouraged? Why is my heart so sad? I will put my hope in God! I will praise him again - my Savior and my God! That song "as the deer pants for the water..." seems almost nice, but it's not...it's part of a cry of anguish, of hurt, of despair...of God not giving an answer...yet...through all that...again and again he says I'll put my hope in God! #choose #hope #hopeunshaken
