DAILY MEDITATIONS ON THE PSALMS

Each morning I spend 30 minutes, more or less, researching and writing on a passage of scripture. This is principally a form of spiritual self-discipline. But comments and questions are welcome.

Restore our fortunes, O Lord, like the watercourses in the Negeb. May those who sow in tears reap with shouts of joy. Those who go out weeping, bearing the seed for sowing, shall come home with shouts of joy, carrying their sheaves. (Psalm 126: 4-6)

Recovering from illness, restoring freedom, reclaiming confidence are good cause for special joy. We often do not fully appreciate what we have until we lose it.

Returning from a state of deprivation to a more balanced and sustainable condition is worth a celebration.

Restore what we have lost. Give us a second-chance to recognize its value. Help us to fully appreciate what we have today.
