Why Feel the Psalm? Jan.30


 

We are to learn to live Psalms as we read them.

“He leads me beside the still waters; He restores my soul….” [Ps.23]

Water follows the least resistance [and so do we].  It is too easy to go with the raging, flowing water. It only slows and collects by containment. God provides and encourages the slowing down, the meditation time, a place to rethink, absorb and rework error of inadequate decisions. His word is our guide to prayer.

        God helps to reframe the soul (that decision-maker) for any new kingdom action. He joins the Self in a partnership for other centeredness.

“Blessed are the meek; for they shall inherit the earth.” [Mt.5] Why? Because the Meek can be trusted, they can absorb for the kingdom.
