PSALM SATURDAY

For today, I have chosen several Psalms that go together for me, as a prayer for myself, to God to help me radiate His joy and love to others and to fulfill His purpose for me. So, I am going to list the references, and then put all of the verses together so that it will flow. They are still in the same order that they are in the Bible.

Psalms (NIV)

16:11; 19:8, 14; 40:8;51:10; 57:2

Dear Lord,

You have made known to me the path of life; You will will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand. The precepts of the Lord are right, giving joy to the heart. The commands of the Lord are radiant, giving llight to the eyes.

May the words of my mouth and the meditations of my heart be pleasing in Your sight, O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer. I desire to do your will, O my God; Your law is within my heart. Create in me a pure heart. O God and renew a steadfast spirit within me. I cry out to God, Most High, to God, who fulfills His purpose for me.

I had already chosen the above when I read Deb's Psalm for today at http://onesingleminute.blogspot.com/, who is also joining Collete at http://jesuslovesmums.blogspot.com/ for Psalm Saturday.

Deb has written her Psalms as a a prayer for us, her blogging friends, so be sure to go over and read it.

Collette has chosen some beautiful Psalms about God's creation!

Join us in sharing Psalms that speak to you today.
