Friday is for Heart Songs
Read Psalm 114:1-8
Suggested by a Reading of Psalm 114
Meditating on Psalm 114
To Tremble at Holy Things
A people, dirty
. landless,
. homeless,
. unskilled,
. unsettled,
. rebellious,
. stubborn,
. oppressed,
. pursued,
. hungry,
. thirsty,
. doubting,
. faithless,
. sinful,
. prideful,
. fearful.
But also, covenanted
. selected,
. promised,
. chosen,
. appointed,
. rescued,
. redeemed,
. loved.
You made them, a sanctuary
. a dwelling place,
. witnesses to a fleeing sea,
. a retreating river,
. weeping rocks,
. moving, burning, glowing mountains,
. a shining face,
. recipients of God-carved stone.
The dumb and deaf earth
Awoke and trembled
At the sanctuary that moved above it–
A sanctuary that You dwelled within.
Make my heart tremble at Your Holy presence today
Like the quaking ground under Jacob.
Go to Psalm 115
