Someone once told me I was delusional. I almost fell off of my unicorn.

Psalms 7

Sorry I haven’t posted in a while, I wanted to let the people I tagged be able to see the rules easily. Sorry, here’s Psalms 7

Psalms 7

O Lord my God, I take refuge in you; save and deliver me from all who pursue me, or they will tear me like a lion and rip me to pieces with no one to rescue me. O Lord my God, if I have done this and there is guilt on my hands– if I have done evil to him who is at peace with me or without cause have robbed my foe– then let my enemy pursue and overtake me; let him trample my life to the ground and make me sleep in the dust. Selah Arise, O Lord, in your anger; rise up against the rage of my enemies. Awake, my God; decree justice. Let the assembled peoples gather around you. Rule over them from on high; let the Lord judge the peoples. Judge me, O Lord, according to my righteousness, according to my integrity, O Most High. O righteous God, who searches minds and hearts, bring to an end the violence of the wicked and make the righteous secure. My shield is God Most High, who saves the upright in heart. God is a righteous judge, a God who expresses his wrath every day. If he does not relent, he will sharpen his sword; he will bend and string his bow. He has prepared his deadly weapons; he makes ready his flaming arrows. He who is pregnant with evil and conceives trouble gives birth to disillusionment. He who digs a hole and scoops it out falls into the pit he has made. The trouble he causes recoils on himself; his violence comes down on his own head. I will give thanks to the Lord because of his righteousness and will sing praise to the name of the Lord Most High.

Glossary:

integrity- perfect

disillusionment- freeing from false belief or illusions

Psalms 6

Here’s Psalms 6!

Psalms 6

O Lord, do not rebuke me in your anger or discipline me in your wrath. Be merciful to me, Lord, for I am faint; O Lord, heal me, for my bones are in agony. My soul is in anguish. How long, O Lord, how long? Turn, O Lord, and deliver me; save me because of your unfailing love. No one remembers you when he is dead. Who praises you from the grave? I am worn out from groaning; all night long I flood my bed with weeping and drench my couch with tears. My eyes grow weak with sorrow; they fail because of all my foes.
Away from me, all you who do evil, for the Lord has heard my weeping. The Lord has heard my cry for mercy; the Lord accepts my prayer. All my enemies will be ashamed and dismayed; they will turn back in sudden disgrace

Glossary:

agony- pain

anguish- to inflict with distress, suffering, or pain

dismayed- to upset or alarm.

Psalms 5

Here ya go!

Psalms 5

Give ear to my words, O Lord, consider my sighing. Listen to my cry for help, my King and my God, for to you I pray. In the morning, O Lord, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait in expectation. You are not a God who takes pleasure in evil; with you the wicked cannot dwell. The arrogant cannot stand in your presence; you hate all who do wrong. You destroy those who tell lies; bloodthirsty and deceitful men the Lord abhors.
But I, by your great mercy, will come into your house; in reverence will I bow down toward your holy temple. Lead me, O Lord, in your righteousness because of my enemies– make straight your way before me. Not a word from their mouth can be trusted; their heart is filled with destruction. Their throat is an open grave; with their tongue they speak deceit. Declare them guilty, O God! Let their intrigues be their downfall. Banish them for their many sins, for they have rebelled against you. But let all who take refuge in you be glad; let them ever sing for joy. Spread your protection over them, that those who love your name may rejoice in you. For surely, O Lord, you bless the righteous; you surround them with your favor as with a shield.

Enjoy!

Psalms 4

Here’s the Psalms of the Day!

Psalms 4

Answer me when I call to you, O my righteous God. Give me relief from my distress; be merciful to me and hear my prayer. How long, O men, will you turn my glory into shame? How long will you love delusions and seek false gods? Selah Know that the Lord has set apart the godly for himself; the Lord will hear when I call to him. In your anger do not sin; when you are on your beds, search your hearts and be silent. Selah Offer right sacrifices and trust in the Lord.
Many are asking, “Who can show us any good?” Let the light of your face shine upon us, O Lord. You have filled my heart with greater joy than when their grain and new wine abound. I will lie down and sleep in peace, for you alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety.

Glossary

Delusions- a false belief strongly held in spite of evidence

Selah- perhaps meaning “pause,” or perhaps a musical direction to raise the voice

Creation 2008

I thought that today I’d talk about Creation. It usually is in July. I went last year and, wait, let me tell you what it’s about. Creation is a concert type thing that you can go to once a year. One is at the Gorge over here in WA., and I think the other one is in Pennsylvania. I went with our church and it was a great experience. I learned a lot about The Word, heard great speakers, I got to hear my new favorite band, Hawk Nelson, got hang out with my friend, Megan, and made two great new friends. They have great bands there like, Barlow Girl, Jars of Clay, David Crowder, and the year before last, Third Day! Reliant K, Super Chick, and lots more! Every morning you wake up and at 9.00 you go to the morning worship and sermon. After the sermon the bands start, usually it’s almost lunch time. Every morning there’s a different preacher and worship leader. It was SSSOOO fun! It lasts 3 days. They have camp grounds that you can stay at. But man, does it get hot. Luckily, they have COLD showers that you can go and soak yourself in. That feels GOOD!!! I loved Creation. I recommend it to all!

Psalms

Here’s Psalm 3

O Lord, how many are my foes! How many rise up against me! Many are saying of me, “God will not deliver him.” Selah But you are a shield around me, O Lord; you bestow glory on me and lift up my head.
To the Lord I cry aloud, and he answers me from his holy hill. Selah I lie down and sleep; I wake again, because the Lord sustains me. I will not fear the tens of thousands drawn up against me on every side. Arise, O Lord! Deliver me, O my God! Strike all my enemies on the jaw; break the teeth of the wicked. From the Lord comes deliverance. May your blessing be on your people. Selah

Glossary

Selah- perhaps meaning “pause,” or perhaps a musical direction to raise the voice
