Meditating on Scripture In a Strange Place
Read the Psalm once through.
Sit with Jesus in this text.
Read the Psalm once again slowly. Gently notice a word or phrase that sticks out to you. Ask Jesus why that phrase is sticking out. And what he is saying to you.
Read the Psalm again and notice how you feel being away from home, ‘in a foreign land’?
What do you celebrate about this time? Read the Psalm and receive the invitation to “Remember.” Be silent and sit before God for the next ten minutes. Release anything in prayer that you need to release and simply be with Jesus.
