I am going to attempt to slow down here; and focus attention on my personal walk; a more comprehensive study of the Word and evangelism opportunities.
As to the Psalms study and prayer; Psalm 3 seems to begin an actual prayer of David and is case specific as stated in the intro. as relating to the troubles with Absolom. I will have to seek the Lord as to whether I should go through each Psalm whether it is a prayer or not. I think I may have started something with Psalms a year or two ago and didn't complete it on this site. There are certain Psalms that should be grouped together according to the way they were originally constructed. Some stuff like Psalm 22 is applicable to David and the Messiah but we should basically look at is as any other inspired scripture; we can repeat it to reassure ourselves of His promises or learn the text; but it is not a prayer uniquely. Finally; of course I don't want to place undo focus on the end time ramifications, although understanding the big picture is helpful.
As much as I enjoy this site; I fear that it may be at the expense of me growing in other areas as well as keeping me from facing situations that need to be dealt with. The focus should always be on scripture reading as well as the subject at hand; prayer. I probably am as guilty as anyone else in just forging ahead with a topic; or in my case in particular a concept and bolstering it with scripture. I need to consider if at the time it is edifying; and possibly undo questions it will raise. Trying to use whatever cleverness I have rather than Godly wisdom is not the best approach.
That being said; as Paul said the love of Christ constrains us ( 2 Cor. 5:14). The verse goes on to describe how we die to self in an analogy to Christ's sacrifice and a life of service. I appreciate all the input; as well as love and support. The love of many is said to grow cold in the end times; and that would also I would argue include professing Christians.
I understand that you may be being led by the Spirit to step back from posting. Or, maybe there are things that God wants you to give more attention to and so you will post less often. I hope it is the latter because I do enjoy what you post. I t is helpful to me as it makes me consider topics that have not been brought to my mind before I read your post.
Be encouraged, you are appreciated here.
Going to the doctor tomorrow with my daughter-in-law to check to see how ready she is for labor to start. I think she will probably go to her due date on Friday or later. She goes up the stairs in our house far too comfortably and she doesn't have the "waddle" with the grimace holding her belly when she walks around. She and the rest of us hope she doesn't go into labor until Wednesday or later. But according to what I've read, it is the baby that sends the signal to the uterus and brain to begin labor when the lungs are ready to breath air. It is so amazing how God created all of this to work without any one interfering (because such "assistance in starting labor" is rarely helpful).
Would appreciate your prayers for her and baby in these last days and for the labor and delivery to go well without problems.
