I decided that I would just hang out in Psalms and Proverbs for the month of January. For whatever reason, it’s been so refreshing. Like, if I were Ms. Pac-man, it would be a whole level of just the fruits and power pellets. And, no ghosts!
Anyway… it’s inspired this week’s Friday’s Five
- You have put more joy in my heart than they have when their grain and wine abound — Psalm 4:7
- Be strong and let your heart take courage all you who wait on the Lord! — Psalm 31:24 (emphasis added)
- Behold, the eye of the Lord is on those who fear him, on those who hope in his steadfast love — Psalm 33:18
- Let not steadfast love and faithfulness forsake you; bind them around you neck; write them on the tablet of your heart — Proverbs 3:3
- The righteous flourish like the palm tree…they still bear fruit in old age; they are ever full of sap and green, (why?) to declare that the Lord is upright; he is my rock — Psalm 92:12-15 (emphasis added)
Bonus
- We have escaped like a bird from the snare of the fowlers (pac-man ghosts); the snare is broken and we have escaped! — Psalms 124:7 (emphasis added)
