So i did...

Psalm 23 (The Message)

Psalm 23

A David Psalm

^1-3 God, my shepherd! I don't need a thing.
You have bedded me down in lush meadows,
you find me quiet pools to drink from.
True to your word,
you let me catch my breath
and send me in the right direction.

⁴ Even when the way goes through
Death Valley,
I'm not afraid
when you walk at my side.
Your trusty shepherd's crook
makes me feel secure.

⁵ You serve me a six-course dinner
right in front of my enemies.
You revive my drooping head;
my cup brims with blessing.

⁶ Your beauty and love chase after me
every day of my life.
I'm back home in the house of GOD
for the rest of my life.

it was after I read this.. That my heart suddenly felt calm..

i mean.. heck the wanting bit..

I AM BACK HOME IN THE HOUSE OF GOD

That is aweSOME.

That left me feeling good..

But check out the amplified version..

Psalm 23 (Amplified Bible)

⁶Surely or only goodness, mercy, and unfailing love shall follow me all the days of my life, and through the length of my days the house of the Lord [and His presence] shall be my dwelling place.

SURELY OR ONLY!

I MEAN... WOW!

you cant beat that..

ONLY Goodness, mercy AND unfailing love will hunt me down...

GOD IS so GOOD[period]

Thats what I call touring man...

Psalm chapter two

My Heart is troubled

My soul is weary

My shoulders are fattened

with weight not my own

My eyes fail me

they neither open or closed

My hands are tired

they sleep on the bottom of the deepest ocean

I closed my eyes in the middle of my troubles

I silenced my tougue in the eye of the storm

I hid my hands during the battle

I stood still while the fight raged on

But I opened my ears

And heard the ringing sound

Of an unfailling love

I opened my heart

To rest and surrender

and out poured rivers of life

Truly, None Other can satisfy

No Victory, No Defeat

No solution, No problem

No trial, No hurt

For my soul longs for thee

My heart yerns for thee

For my spirit needs more than

What I can achieve

You are faithful

You are Just

You are love

You are hope

You are mine

+amen

..&now

In a world that the simplest of truths has been twisted so much..

In a age where dignity is simply an idea..

In a time where injustice is dominant..

In a season where we simply just dont care anymore...

In a life that constantly changes...

In a generation that loves themselves..

In truth.. What do we actually know?

What have we actually seen? What is right? What is truth? What is real?

Humanity has been manipulated so badly.. That common sense is no longer something real..

Mercy has become something only Gods are capable of..

Love has become sex

Hope is now something for the rich countries..

Faith has become religion...

Joy has become a memory...

*however

One thing that remains

When everything has faded away..

The word..

And the message that comes from the word is that..

God is Love

And in this world.. And in our lives...

Nothing will ever change that...

nothing

I just got it..

You know we are called to

Love God And Love our Neighbour

Now I Realized Why Worship And Justice Are Suppose To Be Side By Side

Why One Cannot And Should Not Be Done Without The Other

Because When We Worship.. In A Nutshell, We Are Loving God

But When We Do Justice.. We Are Loving Our Neighbour

Loving The One Who 1st Loved Us

And Loving The Unlovable..

Its What We've Been Commanded To Do

Its What I Want To Spend My Life Doing

Loving Jesus And Loving People

Dont you just love the bible.

“He has shown you, O man, what is good;And what does the Lord require of you. But to do Justice, To Love Mercy & to walk Humbly with your God”

+Micah6:8

my psalm

Lord, The weights of this life trouble me

They are too heavy a burden to bare

My enemies are countless in number.

They outnumber those that are for me..

My responsibilities have pulled me back

My past has dragged me down

Surely my sin will be the death of me

Surely my enemies will capture me

I am surrounded by an army of myself

I am dead

For I am no longer alive

My enemies have buried me

My family has weeped

But yet I still breathe..

Why does my heart feel troubled?

Why does my soul long?

Only you can satisfy

Lover of my soul

You are my heart Lord

What are ten thousand horses?

What are five million men?

What is the east from the west?

What is the earth to the sky?

Nothing can separate me from you

What is tiredness? You never sleep.

What is sin? You are righteousness.

What is hurt? You are comfort.

What is hate? You are love.

What is change? You are immutable.

What is distance? You are here.

&
What is death? You are Life.
