Today we begin our journey through the psalms, a collection of hymns and prayers that express nearly every aspect of the human experience. Beyond that, they continually point us to the attributes of the God who reigns over it all.
Before you begin
Ask the Lord to give you a fresh sense of wonder as you read His Word. Pray for understanding and for an open, humble, obedient heart to receive what He wants to say to you.
