A reflection on Psalm 34

May 22, 2016 by Chris Gribble

34

My Version – For when I am anxious and cannot go on. 

My daily search for God’s voice,
tells me that God cares for me,
He overlooks my mistakes,
When I was lost in a downward spiral,
Free falling into an abyss of fear,
My pitiful cries were heard,
When lying on my stomach every morning,
My face buried into the floor,
Sobbing because of my fear of the day,
God reached out and lifted my head,
He looked into my eyes with love,
He spoke to me – he heard me.

Those who threw their bitterness at me,
They will hear God’s voice too,
Bitter words will quickly fade,
They have no place in eternity.

Hope returns even when fear still speaks,
Fear seeks to drown out hope,
Truth corrects deceit,
Bringing back possibility,
God searches for truth and befriends it,
My heart finds an ally,
Who is always on my side,
My broken heart restored.
