THOUGHT for the week

‘May my words and my thoughts be acceptable to you O Lord’ – Psalm 19 verse 14.

As you read this thought for the week, what are the thoughts that fill your mind? What fills your soul?

For some, it will be incredible sadness, others will celebrate with great joy. Anxiety, gladness, fear, hope, despair, excitement are just some of the spectrum of emotions shaping our thoughts.

Throughout the Psalms are expressions of a rich variety of feelings. There is an openness and honesty which cries out to God in different circumstances.

If you pick up a Bible and open it right in the middle, you’ll probably be in the Psalms – and there you may find words that resonate with whatever little bit of life’s rich tapestry you are at.

Whatever our thoughts, there is a God who hears, understands, and upholds.
