The Songs of Jesus: A Year of Daily Devotions in the Psalms

by Timothy J. Keller

Psalms, then, are not just a matchless primer of teaching but a medicine chest for the heart and the best possible guide for practical living.

They are written to be prayed, recited, and sung—to be done, not merely to be read.

God is the only one who sustains you, whether an army is pursuing you or you are at home in your own bed. God sustains every breath you take.

Evil carries within it the seeds of its own destruction.

Now help me, in all my daily interactions, to treat every person I meet as a being infinitely precious in your sight.
