Psalm 5: The Song of the Sacrifice

The Woven Psalms

“Give ear to my words, O LORD; consider my groaning.” (Psalm 5:1)
The Psalms invite us to meditate not only on what we are experiencing and how we are feeling but also on the character of God. They honor the troubles and distress that we’re in, but then they lift our eyes out of our circumstances so that we can see how God fits in with everything around us. It’s a reorientation, a new perspective, a breath of fresh air.
The Woven Psalms is a reflective, unhurried, and practical podcast about praying every psalm in the Bible. This podcast is a ministry of Rock Hill Community Church in Duluth, MN. You can learn more about our work at www.wovenpsalms.com.
