Highland Fam,
I was going to just write about a portion of this Psalm. However, how can you pick from such a powerful Psalm! Highland, please drink deeply of this Biblical nourishment.
“Hallelujah
I will praise the Lord with all my heart
in the assembly of the upright and in the congregation.
2 The Lord’s works are great,
studied by all who delight in them.
3 All that He does is splendid and majestic;
His righteousness endures forever.
4 He has caused His wonderful works to be remembered.
The Lord is gracious and compassionate.
5 He has provided food for those who fear Him;
He remembers His covenant forever.
6 He has shown His people the power of His works
by giving them the inheritance of the nations.
7 The works of His hands are truth and justice;
all His instructions are trustworthy.
8 They are established forever and ever,
enacted in truth and in what is right.
9 He has sent redemption to His people.
He has ordained His covenant forever.
His name is holy and awe-inspiring.
10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom;
all who follow His instructions have good insight.
His praise endures forever.”
Lord,
May the works of Highland be in stride with your hands, which impart truth and justice. Discipline to be within us a heart that relies solely upon Your trustworthy instruction. Within our church-culture, create an atmosphere of compassion and grace; for these qualities flow from Your very nature.
