A Month’s Worth of Daily Reflections on the Psalms

To ask someone to write about a favorite Psalm is like taking a kid to a candy store and telling him he can have anything he wants. How do you choose from such a variety of great material?”

“Choosing one’s favorite psalm is sort of like asking a mother to single out her favorite child, or, in my case, the English professor to select her favorite book from the thousands on her bookshelf.”

In these pages you will find a smorgasbord of great soul food from English professors and others – a few “munchies,” as in Part III: Quick Inspiration –  and some culinary masterpieces to savor, according to your interests, appetite, or need, in Part I: Perspective, and Part II: Comfort.

From time to time, most followers of Jesus feel like their spiritual vehicle has a flat tire. If that sometimes describes your own personal journey of faith, then the insights of this book might just fix it. Yet the thoughts in the following pages are not like that sticky stuff you spray into your flat tire, hoping you can make it to the next service center; instead, each installment is like a whole new tire. Had to throw that in, since the Psalms are so full of analogies. The bottom line here is that as you read these stories you should be prepared for a blitzkrieg of truth, brought to your soul on the wings of story. Like nuggets of gold in settings of silver, or personalized wisdom-filled full-course meals, you’ll find something for your day, every day – and perhaps something you’ll want to share with others.

Description

We asked our more than thirty contributors to choose their favorite Psalm and to explain how that Psalm (or part of it) had become meaningful or ministered to them at a particular point in their lives. Our goal was to create for you a one-a-day, thirty-day diet of God-inspired help-full and hope-filled passages of Scripture that would feed your soul and make it sing.

Be prepared for a blitzkrieg of truth, brought to your soul on the wings of story. Like nuggets of gold in settings of silver, or personalized wisdom-filled full-course meals, you’ll find something for your day, every day – and perhaps something you’ll want to share with others.

These stories are true, and aimed at putting you in touch with the One who inspired the psalms, which we love because in them we find ourselves. As one of our contributors puts it, “The Psalms keep it real. There is no insider hyper-spiritualized language but rather raw and naked humanity in conversation with our Creator. Praise, complaint, anger, and contemplation mix together to voice that complicated and confusing range of emotions we experience as we try to sort out our lives.”
