Intentionally Act
- List out the aspects of God’s character revealed in this psalm. How would these character traits address the situation in which the Psalmist is struggling?
- What character traits of God and promises of God directly speak to the situations you are walking through right now? How could these lead you to live, act, and think differently?
- How does the psalmist contrast God with himself and creation in the final handful of verses in the psalm? How would recognizing your condition rightly in comparison to God help you this week? List out several ways.
- How does the immutability of God inform the way you should live? Respond to trials? Lament?
- Click the links below to find the lyrics and recordings of the songs planned for our gathering this Sunday; practice the songs, study the lyrics and sing together.
- Pray for those leading our corporate gathering this week and for the Holy Spirit’s work as the Word of God is further explained and applied: Dawson Bryant: music; Ben Gardner: elder prayer & scripture reading; Rob Stouffer: teaching.
