After exploring many names for God, our Writing Workshop class was challenged to write a psalm based on a theme found in our list. This is mine:
O LORD, Creator and Creation,
Sun, Moon and Stars,
Living Water, River of Life
We dwell in you and in your world,
thirsting for the Life that only you can give.
Lead us, guide us to the thirst quenching water of your word.
Bring us through the day and through the night
to the place that you would have us go.
You, Giver of Rainbows,
have promised to be with us always.
But we, scrambling around in our day to day lives,
forget your promises.
We forget to look aloft at the rainbows you send us
as reminder of your promise.
Whisper to us, O LORD,
Shout, if need be.
Remind us of your love;
of your promises.
Take us to your life-giving waters
and restore us.
