Still reading and feeling

 Just to be clear I am still reading the bible. I am just deciding not to always write something or not always share what I write. 

These past few days have been incredibly busy and a filled with challenges. 

Prayer is needed.

The dangers of being vulnerable: Psalm 7

  The dangers of being vulnerable: Psalm 7 Psalm 7 A psalm of David, which he sang to the Lord concerning Cush of the tribe of Benjamin. 1 I come to you for protection, O Lord my God.     Save me from my persecutors—rescue me! 2 If you don’t, they will maul me like a lion,     tearing me to pieces with no one to rescue me. 3 O Lord my God, if I have done wrong     or am guilty of injustice, 4 if I have betrayed a friend     or plundered my enemy without cause, 5 then let my enemies capture me.     Let them trample me into the ground     and drag my honor in the dust.

Whether it is a jubilant exultation of victory and celebration of the wonders of God's creation, power and glory or it is a desperate cry for help, all the Psalms in one way or another are testimonies of relationship with God. God has been talking to me my whole life. There is not a time in my life where I can’t remember God talking to me. I am not saying I was listening, obeying or following my whole life. But I can see, looking back, that God has always been present.  Psalms 18 and 19 are two of the most important Psalms in God’s voice in my head. God used Psalm 19 to speak to me of His power, grandeur, holiness and requirement of obedience. I love walking at night and I love looking at the stars.
