Psalm 42:1-2
Book 2 (Psalms 42-72)
Psalm 42
For the music director; a well-written song by the Korahites.
1 As a deer longs for streams of water,
so I long for you, O God!
2 I thirst for God, for the living God.
I say, “When will I be able to go and appear in God’s presence?”
Songs
Songs of the past remind me
of a simple call to service.
Of Assurance of Salvation
and the power of our God.
It is me He tries to mold
and prepare for His Service
through love and limitless patience
so I won’t be like a robot.
He provides the Living Water
that flows through the Holy Spirit.
direct into the spirit mine
as long as I share Jesus.
My spirit overflows with Him
He pours Himself in merit
into everything I need to be
in the image of Christ Jesus.
If I quit sharing however
the flow will slow and stop.
My spirit instead of overflowing
will become stagnant for sure.
It will drown in its own feelings
and develop into a pitiful drop
to be absorbed in a fast indifference
where the soul cannot endure.
Jan Wienen
