Psalms for the Soul

By Linda Herring

The Bible speaks to us but the Psalms speak for us. God wants to be the greatest passion of every believer’s life. If we claim to love the Lord, our connection with Him should have priority over possessions, vocation, and even other relationships. Psalm 37:4 says, “Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give the desires of your heart.” We often miss the true meaning of this verse by assuming the verse means we can get what we want. But in contrast, that scripture reveals the Lord’s principles for purifying our desires and issues a call for devotion to Him. We must allow our thoughts, goals, and life style to be shaped by His will, our Father wants to give us our heart’s desires in His time. Do not let the stresses of the day steal your Psalm.
