We encourage you to read this devotion three times a
day. Start in the morning and reflect upon the morning reflection
question. Then in the afternoon, read it again and reflect using the noon
question for reflection. For the evening, take time to ponder how this
has resonated with you in the day and reflecting using the evening
question. We offer a prayer with each devotion for you to pray or we
invite you to pray what is in your heart.
let me never be put to shame;
deliver me in your righteousness.
2 Turn your ear to me,
come quickly to my rescue;
be my rock of refuge,
a strong fortress to save me.
3 Since you are my rock and my fortress,
for the sake of your name lead and guide me.
4 Keep me free from the trap that is set for me,
for you are my refuge.
Psalm 31
1 In you, Lord, I have taken refuge;let me never be put to shame;
deliver me in your righteousness.
2 Turn your ear to me,
come quickly to my rescue;
be my rock of refuge,
a strong fortress to save me.
3 Since you are my rock and my fortress,
for the sake of your name lead and guide me.
4 Keep me free from the trap that is set for me,
for you are my refuge.
Reflection:
Psalms are beautiful for so many reasons. David poured out his heart and soul to God. When we aren't able to fully express our emotions, the Psalms can be a way to express for us. They can be words of hope, songs of sadness, or uncertainty. Here is a cry for help. I invite you to pray the psalms and see all the variances you will find.
Reflection Question:
Morning: When have you needed to call on God for help?
Noon: What is your favorite Psalm?
Evening: Try and write a psalm for yourself.
