PsalmChallenge #42 (43)

Psalm 42 (43)
Wishing to Be Near God
1: As a deer thirsts for streams of water,
so I thirst for you, God.
2: I thirst for the living God.
       When can I go to meet with him?

 3: Day and night, my tears have been my food.
    People are always saying,
       "Where is your God?"

 7: Troubles have come again and again, sounding like waterfalls.
       Your waves are crashing all around me.

8: The Lord shows his true love every day.
       At night I have a song,
       and I pray to my living God.

 9: I say to God, my Rock,
       "Why have you forgotten me?
    Why am I sad
       and troubled by my enemies?"

 11: Why am I so sad?
       Why am I so upset?
    I should put my hope in God
       and keep praising him,
       my Savior and my God.

Here's a song we normally sing in Church -
God will make a way,
where there seems to be no way.
He works in ways,
We cannot see,
He will make a way for me..

This seems to be the answer to your questions :)

Each photo is powerful, even more so in the psalm context.
Google locked me out of my blog so I can't participate today. :(

Shalom from Dina

Some dramatic faces! And your choice of photo for each verse is just right. Have a wonderful week up there in the cold and wintry North!

I found your blog through Dina and now her blog is gone. I am so upset that something is wrong. Do you have any idea? Thank you so much.
