It is funny what God puts in our paths.  I first was attracted to a particular musical setting of this Psalm, then I lost my Dad and this was the piece that popped out of my heart when I chose the music for his funeral.  A few years later, I lost a job and really felt alone and beaten.  This prayer called to me again.  Then there was COVID and the lockdowns: no Palm Sunday, no Holy Week, and no Easter celebrations, a spiritual desert, and there was my old friend Psalm 63 to comfort me. 

I love the Book of Psalms.  It is such a blessing to know that when I don’t have the words to pray, the Psalms are there; a rich source of prayer for every human emotion and experience.  

Thank you for working through Psalm 63 with me this week.  This meditation helped me to do a mini reset and reflect on where I am today in my journey towards a deeper relationship with the Lord.  I hope in some small way, for those who might be their own desert you are encouraged to seek The Way, The Truth, The Power and The Glory that comes from God alone.

Soli Deo Gloria
