Psalms 5
@prodigaljohn David calls liars people with throats that are "open graves." May our tombs be closed today & truth spill out
@GustafsonK Psalms 5:8- It is God who provides me with direction... with a straight path
@jared_young If only we had confidence in God that David had. "Give ear to my words." He demands God to listen b/c he has a right perspective Ps5:1
@LisaNotes How to have meaningful time with God (Rick Warren) Ps 5:3
@blundin We can only approach God through the abundance of His steadfast love. Psalm 5:7
@philigionosophy I take grace for granted way to much - Day 5 - http://tumblr.com/xal5g9dwo
Psalms 6
@prodigaljohn The "Don't worry, be happy 24/7" approach to faith is fake. David says "all night I flood my bed with weeping" P6
@GustafsonK Psalms 6:5- David wrote the psalm before Christ. Not only does Jesus praise the father from the grave... but through it!
@rduf May I serve the Lord on good days with as much passion as David shows when begging for mercy on his bad days. Ps6
@LisaNotes David didn't hold back on telling the Lord how he really felt. Neither should we. Psalm 6
@blundin I wonder if we have the same grief over our sin that David did over his? Psalm 6
@jeannienaylor Are my pleas to God for my sake, or His? Psalm 6:4-5.
@staidan Do not be afraid of being honest with God - heartfelt anguish trumps false joy every time - see Psalm 6. http://tinyurl.com/yg2e3ld
@philigionosophy In our sorrow, humility can grow - Day 6 - http://tumblr.com/xal5glydl
@RachLuvs How long, O Lord? -Ps6:3 Why does it matter? Why do we always question God's timing?
Psalms 7
@prodigaljohn "The trouble he causes recoils on himself" - Regardless of if you get "caught," sin is its own consequence. P7
@GustafsonK Psalms 7:14-16. Evil begets evil and falls victim to itself. 7:17 While the righteousness of God breaks the cycle
@blundin We tend to pick a God who is either righteous or merciful depending on the situation. We're wrong, He is always both. Psalm 7:8-11
@LisaNotes Ps 7:17 I will give to the LORD the thanks due to his righteousness, & I will sing praise to the name of the LORD, the Most High
@philigionosophy God must punish wrong because He is just and righteous - Day 7 - http://tumblr.com/xal5hecpb
@RachLuvs He has dug a pit and fallen into the hole. -Ps7:15 When we set traps for others, we usually end up caught in our own trap.
Psalms 8
@prodigaljohn "When I consider your heavens," Don't let life get so fast that you miss the extraordinary call of God in middle of ordinary days. P8
@gustafsonk Ps8: Who am I that the Lord of all the earth/ would care to know my name? -Casting Crowns
@joelt_ Psa8 - All authority, glory or honor is "crowned" by the Lord. And our praise of Him is what cripples the enemy. #sclp <~~ Join us!
@philigionosophy I totally feel with David when he asks "who is man that you are mindful of him?" - Day 8 - http://tumblr.com/xal5hokey
@blundin Insignificant though we are in this universe, we were entrusted by God with the care of His creations. This is a heavy burden. Psalm 8
@jennosteen Evidence of grace in our earthly home. Ps. 8:3-4
@jeannienaylor Imagining this scene, I only picture his fingers gently placing them like a child puts stickers on a paper, simple yet perfect. Ps 8:3
Psalms 9
@prodigaljohn "he does not ignore the cry of the afflicted." PS9. It isn't he does not ignore silence of the afflicted. Cry.
@GustafsonK Psalms 9:10- How nice to know that in a world of constant disappointment that we have a God who will NEVER forsake us if we seek him.
@LisaNotes I'm making this my theme for the day--Trust & Thankfulness. Psalm 9:1,9-11
@blundin Because of God's judgement of the wicked and our righteousness through Christ the Lord is a stronghold for the oppressed. Psalm 9:7-10
@philigionosophy It's insane how much of Psalms is David praising God - Day 9 - http://tumblr.com/xal5jcfqq
@j_little Rx for hope: knowing that God accomplishes justice & never abandons those who seek his help. Ps 9
Psalms 10
@gustafsonk Psalms 10- Though the wicked may prosper and sneer- but the Lord desires and defends the afflicted!
@LisaNotes God hears our desires; God strengthens our hearts; God acts justly toward the orphans and oppressed. Ps 10:17-18
@jeannienaylor If I'm not trusting Him, do I really know His name? If I feel forsaken, have I honestly been seeking Him? Psalm 9:10
@blundin In view of Haiti's plight: "Arise, O Lord, O God, lift up your hand; forget not the afflicted." Psalm 10:12
@philigionosophy God listens to and defends the oppressed - Day 10 - http://tumblr.com/xal5kpbac
@staidan "But you, O God, do see trouble and grief;you consider it to take it in hand" Ps 10:14 Hard as it seems, know God is in control.
Psalms 11
@GustafsonK Psalms 11- The world aims it's arrows at the upright heart. Evil loves to see the righteous fall.
@joelt_ Psa11 - David reminds us of our reason for hope even when the very foundations of the world are crumbling.
@philigionosophy Though the wicked shoot to kill, the upright can find refuge in the Lord - Day 11 - http://tumblr.com/xal5lms77
