earnestly i seek you; my soul thirsts for you, my body longs for you, in a dry and weary land where there is no water.
I have seen you in the sanctuary and beheld your power and your glory.
Because
Your Love Is Better Than Life, my lips will glorify you. i will praise you as long as i live, and in your name i will lift up my hands. My soul will be satisfied as with the richest of foods; with singing lips my mouth will praise you.
On my bed I remember you; i think of you through the watches of the night. Because you are my help I sing in the shadow of your wings. My soul clings to you; your right hand upholds me.
They who seek my life will be destroyed; they will go down to the depths of the earth. They will be given over to the sword and become food for jackals.
But the king will rejoice in God; all who swear by God's name will praise him, while the mouths of liars will be silenced.
Psalm 63

Such a great passage. Loads of encouragement and peace in there...
Whoa... have you wondered why the WORD of God is so powerful? so compelling? so very intimate? I love that the WORD became flesh and dwelt among us. I love that God spoke the WORD and it was. Makes my words seem like gibberish. LOVE the Psalms.
What a powerful chapter!
David's complete desire for loving God is simply amazing. The realness in this passage IS AWESOME David is like I love you Lord ,more then anything and all my enemies are going to have violent deaths and are going to hell and I will 'rejoice in God'.
I just LOVE how God used people like David, through out the Bible. David makes mistakes and isn't afraid to tell it like it is. Yet God uses him in such a powerful way:) Praise the Lord for His amazing grace!
lovely.
