My wife has a book by C.S. Lewis entitled, Reflections on the Psalms. Whenever I see it I’m reminded again of how I, along with a multitude of others, love this precious book. Through the years, I have jotted down some little personal notes in the heading this book. I’d like to share some of these thoughts with you today, if you don't mind:
1. The Spirit-filled believer is drawn to Psalms (Eph.5:18-19).
2. Much of the book is autobiographical...about David's personal life.
3. There is a Balm in Psalms. It’s the “Gilead” of the Bible (Jer.8:22 a, cp. Gen.37:25).
4. It is in the very heart of the Bible because it’s to the heart.
5. David’s physical foes have become our spiritual enemies today
(1Cor.10:6 a, 11).
6. Look for Jesus when you read the Psalms (Luke 24:44 cp. Psl.2:2 and Acts 4:26).
A Psalm a day will bring the Great Physician your way.
