Instructions from the psalms
TRUTH TO TRUST
Welcome to a deep-dive of the beautiful and emotional poetry of the ancient Psalms! All 150 poems weave together a moving narrative of people expressing despair, frustration, resiliency, trust and hope. These poems give us permission to be fully human, to cry out to God and express our deepest feelings to our loving Creator. The Psalms teach us to speak our truth. They also offer a powerful model for trusting in the Lord, trusting in our steadfast, loving God who never abandons us.
Join us as we read all 150 Psalms in order, and hear from 5 resilient women, who share their stories of suffering, resiliency and gratitude so that we feel less alone. These women have lived through the unimaginable and yet each of them held on to a sliver of hope that the sun would continue to rise and that the Lord would deliver them. They all express a gratitude for God’s partnership through their journeys, just like the psalmists.
