This week readings are Acts 19-23:22, Judges 10-19, Job 39-42, and Psalm 42-44
The Psalms speak so much to the human condition and our relationship with God.
These are the verses which spoke loudest to me from our readings.
42:1-2 As a deer longs for flowing streams, so my soul longs for you, O God. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When shall I come and behold the face of God?
42:11 and 43: 5 Why are you cast down, O my soul, and why are you disquieted within me? Hope in God; for I shall again priase him, my help and my God.
44:23-26 Rouse yourself! Why do you sleep, O Lord? Awake, do not cast us off forever! Why do you hide your face? Why do you forget our affliction and oppression? For we sink down to the dust; our bodies cling to the ground. Rise up, come to our help, Redeem us for the sake of your steadfast love.
