Sunday Psalms;
For the Choir Director;
according to "the Lilies".
A Maskil of the Sons of Korah.
A love song. 

My heart is moved by a noble theme as I recite my verses to the king;
Psalms 45:1 CSB

Not only is this Psalm marked as a love song, it's even got the tune identified. No doubt today you'd hear this song on the radio or Spotify or wherever you find your music today. 
The thing I love about this is that the writer is writing about what has or is moving their heart. That's where the freedom is;
What is moving your heart?
Today it could be grief, loss, hurt, struggle, fear. 
It could be beauty, compassion, success, growth, gratitude, safety, love. 
What is moving your heart today?
This Psalm gives us the freedom to think on it, process it, write about it, write about how we feel, express it in some way through music or art or words or some form. 
Give expression to what moves your heart. 
And share it. 
This love song got into the biggest selling book of all time! Maybe just with one person who you trust is enough and see what happens. 
What is moving your heart?

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
