The Writer’s Psalm – The Lord is My Editor!

1516287561606_image.jpgThe Lord is my editor He makes me lie down and rest upon His word

He leads me to the quiet place of prayer so I will think before I write

He leads me to live His word not just listen so others will see His name written in my life

He stays up with me on lonely sleepless nights giving the comfort of His presence when I have nothing I can think of to say.

He prepares a feast of the joy of His presence when unfair words work to discourage me

He pours His grace over my life in such amounts that I can’t wait to share it with others

He sends blessings to follow me every day

And when He sends His approval of my manuscript

He includes a note saying, “Why not stop at my house when you are done

So we can spend all of eternity together!”

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures.
He leads me beside still waters.
He restores my soul.
He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil, for you are with me;
your rod and your staff, they comfort me.

You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.
Surely goodness and mercy[e] shall follow me all the days of my life,
and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.  Psalm 23 ESV

Praying for God’s Comfort

We are broken hearted tonight and have been praying for the students and parents in Florida. This Valentine’s night it is time for our hearts to remember those who will not be here tomorrow. I miss the days when school violence meant getting hit with snow balls by the kids over on West 21st street! Jesus said that one life -any person’s life is worth more than the whole world. We have lost the treasure of 17 worlds tonight. May God bring comfort to the families and change to our nation.

For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?
Matthew 16:26 NKJV
