A Reflection on Psalm 141

June 8, 2016 by Chris Gribble

141

I desire a heart that belongs to God,
Hearing his words of daily appreciation,
His desires becoming my calling,
Our words combining to declare love’s triumph,
No room to harbour selfish inclinations,
Love is a single minded pursuit,
Of seeking the beauty that lies within.

A divided life is a disheartening lie,
That never pays its full due,
Its cost mounts with false promise,
Of a dividend that is never paid,
The false hope quickly fades to nothing,
Along with the the liar’s words,
Leading my dear enemy to his own destruction.

Word traps abound every day,
They seek to find a way to destroy,
Questions seeking to create doubt,
Becoming my dear enemy’s deepest regret,
As I hear God’s loving truth,
Expressed in the great reversal,
Where justice is fully understood by all,
My life lived in Grace’s abundance,
Life now lived as a daily adventure,
Intolerant of Lie’s deceits.
