Psalm 63 ~ my mouth shall praise You

Psalm 63

O God, you are my God; earnestly I seek you;

my soul thirsts for you;

my flesh faints for you,

as in a dry and weary land where there is no water.

2 So I have looked upon you in the sanctuary,

beholding your power and glory.

3 Because your steadfast love is better than life,

my lips will praise you.

4 So I will bless you as long as I live;

in your name I will lift up my hands.

5 My soul will be satisfied as with fat and rich food,

and my mouth will praise you with joyful lips,

6 when I remember you upon my bed,

and meditate on you in the watches of the night;

7 for you have been my help,

and in the shadow of your wings I will sing for joy.

8 My soul clings to you;

your right hand upholds me.

9 But those who seek to destroy my life

shall go down into the depths of the earth;

10 they shall be given over to the power of the sword;

they shall be a portion for jackals.

11 But the king shall rejoice in God;

all who swear by him shall exult,

for the mouths of liars will be stopped.

 

Today was a day of Praise because tomorrow is going to be here soon. It was a day to apologize to Father God for being rude to almost everyone, including HIM.  Some days are just like that. And so praise God for not feeling abandoned or condemned for being awful, but instead lifted up to return to another day.

Prayers are appreciated for sons returning home from college, who never met a glass of milk where yogurt couldn't be cultured. Fortunately, the Green Heron baby has decided to learn to fly and is not longer the aggressive baby bird on top of the dryer.  And the chaos of new arguments, old arguments, and OMGosh how much can you put in my garage.  My mom is visiting, which has been lovely, but give me a chance to get upset.....

 

Thank GOD, for HIS Love.

Because your steadfast love is better than life,

my lips will praise you.
