Praying with the Psalms

Reading Psalm 18 this morning & came across this verse…

7 Then the earth quaked and trembled;
the foundations of the mountains shook;
they quaked because of his anger.

I like Eugene Peterson’s thoughts on it:

Earthquake, thunder, lightning, volcanic eruptions — sudden, violent dislocations of nature’s routine — are images of the God who is tremendously active beneath the surface of casually observed life.

Prayer: Lord, in my little faith, I try to reduce you to a convenient size and harness your attributes to my requirements. I need your thundering word to lay the foundations of my world bare so I can see that you are not a convenience to use, but the very rock on which I stand. Amen.
