Category: Psalms (Page 4 of 4)

The opening line to this Psalm sets the context for everything that David says here. Notice that he says this is a Psalm of David, when he fled from Absalom his son. The Israelites would have actually sung these words in their weekly gathering. Sounds like a great, light and fluffy song for the lineup in our church gatherings doesn’t it?

I often love to ask myself who I want to be in ten years. What kind of a person do I want to be? What kind of character traits do I want to be known for? What do I need to do right now to set the ship of my life sailing in that direction? This kind of vision driven assessment of my life is oftentimes hard and exciting at the same time.
