Today in Chapel our leader reminded us of the different types and styles of human experience are recorded in the book of Psalms in the Holy Bible. After this reminder he asked us if we had an unwritten psalm that needs expressing so we can communicate to Our Father what our heart and head are praying right now. Out of that comes this “Psalm of David”:
The calm is unsettling
The waters are still
Yet all that I long for
is to know Your best will
Your peace is the greatest
Your love gives me rest
Yet my heart quickens
To be put to the test
I can’t help but wonder
Where Your steps will lead
I’ll run to You always
Your Word will I heed
Regardless what happens
To You I’ll be true
But until Your direction
I’ll remain through and through
Please respond to this with your own psalm, questions or comments.
O Lord, although my shortcomings are great, still You are greater.
O Lord, in my weakness my heart cries out for Your strength.
O Lord, though my rebellion is pressing, You sill call me Son.
For, in You o Lord, I find renewed strength and peace.
In You only can I find grace. And only by Your grace can I be right.
Psalm 2011.
