My Own Psalm

My Own Psalm...
At CCF this semester we have been studying the Psalms on Sundays, and this week we got to write out own. We have broken them down in orientation, disorientation, and new orientation psalms and at this point im not sure where mine lies. But I thought I would share it with you. Its not very beautiful sounding but it's from my heart.

Lord...Father...Daddy
The way that name rolls off my tongue sooths my soul.
I come too often heavyladen and overwhelmed,
but You, Daddy,
You take all the worries and burdens away.
In You, and You alone do I find rest.
May I remember Your promises all the days you grant me.

Father, remind me of what great faith looks like.
Women like Sarah and Rahab have demonstareated great, tansforming faith.
Help me to follow in the same way.
But Daddy, I'm weak and I need you to hold my hand, to give me strength.

Your presence, is encouragment for me to continue.
You stand with open arms, let me be enveloped by them.
May my small, weak, fragil, sinful body be covered by Your grace.

Lord... Father... Daddy
Your Reign forever!
And I will Love you and Praise You everyday you grant.

I encourage you to go write a Psalm of your own, not matter if it is one of orientation, disorientation, or new orientation. The Lod, our God is mighty and he will restore your heart.
