Psalms for the Soul

By Linda Herring

The Bible speaks to us, but the Psalms speak for us. Psalm 46:10 says, ”Be still and know that I am God.” When we are in a crisis, we usually start thinking about how we are going to get out of it. Think of the people at the Red Sea, the people living in Jericho, and when David killed Goliath. Can you imagine how they must have felt? We must get still before God, get alone with Him, and wait patiently until He speaks to us. Our minds must be clear and be willing to let God write in them. Stay in the Word, and stay on your knees in prayer. Jesus once healed some lepers, but their healing did not take place immediately. The Bible says,” As they went, they were healed.” At first, they may have thought, “Nothing’s happening.” I still have leprosy. But when they got to a certain point in their journey, the miracle took place. We must be willing to step out in faith and try things in order to find what works and what does not. Do not let the stresses of the day steal your Psalm.
