Psalms are praises to God. This is very well written with a smooth flow of words, making for a very interesting read. This has very good imagery.

Jan, I look forward to reading these writings of your
psalms of praise and looking to God in times of distress
and joy. I think you are so right. Many people find
comfort and joy in the Psalms.

Comment from Barlock
I know you said that "The Psalms are considered poetry" but I can hardly agree to that. It maybe a nicely written piece, but certainly not a poem.
This is poetry, written by Karen Ravn:
"Only as high as I reach can I grow,
Only as far as I seek can I go,
Only as deep as I look can I see,
Only as much as I dream can I be."
Cheers,
JB

Comment from mumsyone
Hi Jan,
Psalms and Proverbs are my favorite books of the Bible because they are sheer poetry as far as I'm concerned, and they hold so many comforting messages. It's a shame that your therapist put "pressure" on you with her suggestion, but I know exactly what you mean. However, it sounds like you're going to handle it exactly as you had planned,and I wish you all the best with it.
Hugs and blessings,
Lois
Recently I was sharing a (my) poem (Psalm of Distance) with (to let readers know where the poem came from)

Comment from yonashalom
Very nice. I love the idea. I have wanted to compile devotionals in much the same way. Writing is indeed good therapy. I am presently using it for this very reason as I overcome medical obstacles. Best wishes to you for success in this endeavor. G-d bless.:)
