Next‚ chapter ten‚ “The Psalms for Christians: In the West until the Reformation‚ and in the East‚” traces the Christian community and their use of the Psalms. During this period‚ we begin to see formal liturgies develop in the early centuries as a part of worship‚ which included the use of psalms in these liturgies (p.166).

Return to your rest‚ my soul‚ for the Lord has been good to you. For you‚ Lord‚ have delivered me from death my eyes from tears‚ my feet from stumbling‚ that I may walk before the Lord in the land of the living.” For me this verse has always played a big art in my life.

It is only reasonable that we expect businesses to lie. I believe it is unethical to advertise products as being scarce if that’s not the truth. There are numerous scriptures in the bible about lying. The ninth commandment states‚ “Thou Shalt not lie.” Psalms 15:1-3 says‚ “God expects truth to permeate every

That God loves us eternally and unconditionally as declared in Jeremiah 31:3‚ is worth not only celebrating but also ensuring that everyone gets to hear and know about it. That is indeed the best way to respond and reciprocate to God’s grace and love to every beneficiary‚ and not doing it amounts to not only disobedience but selfishness.

When first reading Psalm 8‚ it reminds me of God’s majesty and how the significance of my life will be measured by my relationship with God. The second thing it reminds me of is‚ when I live in the light of God‚ I will better understand the purpose of my life and where I fit into His plan.
