June 13 - Psalm 23 & 24

Psalm 23 & 24

As I read these two Psalms this morning, I felt my spirit being lifted.

The 23 Psalm has a sense of reassurance in it. Images like God being with me "in the valley of the shadow of death" and phrases like "goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life" provide a sense of God's continual presence. I am never alone.

The 24 Psalm repeats the line "Lift up your head". Why do we lift up our heads, to see that "the Lord Almighty is the King of glory." A simple reminder of the greatness of God. A great God who cares about me.
