I posted this piece earlier -- a Christmas present for my mother.  Yet is is also a part of my series on the The Psalms, so I wanted to include it here.

This Psalm is so beautiful.  Right now, it is my favorite.  Every single word is so full of life and meaning.  Every time I read these words, new ideas are revealed.

I think that is what draws me to the Psalms.  Each line is so big.  So fulfilling.  So new.  

​And so tonight as I lay down to meditate on these words, I pray that these words will bring new joy and love to you, that you may sleep in peace.

​

Psalm 63: 1-8 (CEV) 

You are my God. I worship you.

    In my heart, I long for you,
    as I would long for a stream
    in a scorching desert.
I have seen your power
and your glory
    in the place of worship.
Your love means more
than life to me,
    and I praise you.
As long as I live,
    I will pray to you.
I will sing joyful praises
and be filled with excitement
    like a guest at a banquet.
I think about you
    before I go to sleep,
    and my thoughts turn to you
    during the night.
You have helped me,
    and I sing happy songs
    in the shadow of your wings.
I stay close to you,
    and your powerful arm
    supports me.
