Psalm Challenge 89

 

psalm challenge #89

 

each week, i have been studying the next psalm,

googling god so to speak

hoping to channel some of what makes the foundations

of humanity

you know, the nice side,

hopefully the nice ones.

 

We are all flawed by design however

even god

being all inclusive

take the bad with the good

 

last night,

news of dad taking ill,

i am silently crushed and not surprised

and

 

utterly powerless

as is he

 

He carried the dna that makes half of me

and i feel it about half the time

 

so events started colliding with my

psalm challenge post-planning.

Research yielded David, Immanuel, the Covenant,

the Promise God made

to sons of David
 

he said, hang in there, i will be there for you

 

This Psalm song was sung by Ethan,

(also the name of a local vt rebel Hero)

 

 

I woke up and checked out the news.

janis joplin is 70 today

the first song that came to mind

fit so well with the sentiments of this psalm

love and pain

faith and redemption
