Ruach Breath Of Life

Many of us will be in the habit of drawing up checklists before setting out on major trips. On a spiritual plane, it is worth checking, too, just what is it that our hearts are a-thirst for. Is it for the Lord’s presence and purposes, or for something more self-centred? May we continue to thirst, long and even pine for the Lord in the way that David speaks of in Psalm 63 – even in those times when we feel more aware of the Lord’s absence than of His presence! As we draw this series to a close, we read the psalm right through one final time, as interpreted by the NLT editors, occasional phrases from the CEV, along with many of the tremendous truths that David declares in Psalm 145. We have set the readings to a piece called Adonai, written and played for us on the Celtic harp by Jane Horsfall.
