Singing to the Father

“Sing to God, sing in praise of his name,

extol him who rides on the clouds;

rejoice before him—his name is the Lord. A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows,

is God in his holy dwelling.

God sets the lonely in families,

he leads out the prisoners with singing;

but the rebellious live in a sun-scorched land.”

‭‭Psalms‬ ‭68:4-6‬ ‭NIV

Today, I sing to the Father

Thanking Him for the good gifts of my father, and my sons’ father

Today, I pray to the Father

Asking Him to keep His word

By defending the widows and single mamas

By placing the lonely in families and committed friendships

By letting justice roll down on sick systems that profit from prisons and the imprisoned

By scorching the unrighteous with conviction and leading them toward the healing waters of repentance and repair

May He who rides on the clouds

Crack open the sky

And pull heaven’s will to earth

Through the Spirit

Through us
