Psalm 68: 19
Meditate on this verse again today as stated in the Contemporary English Version, “We praise you, Lord God! You treat us with kindness day after day, and you rescue us.” Some synonyms for kindness are benevolence, courtesy, gentleness, good will, grace, hospitality, patience, philanthropy, sweetness, tenderness, and understanding.
Using the four parts of lectio divina, feast on this short scripture.
First, taste the Word by reading the scripture slowly through several times, paying close attention to words or phrases that stand out to you. Secondly, chew the Word by meditating on the verse, allowing the Holy Spirit to illuminate revelation to you. Thirdly, swallow the Word by praying the scripture. And finally, digest the Word by contemplating the kindness of our Father.
Journal your thoughts.

Prayer Journey.... "A Great Company"
"A Great Company" is a contemplative prayer journey through Psalm 68. It is an at-home devotion, intended to be done once a week, on Tuesday, sometime during the fourth watch (anytime between 3 am and 6 am).
Psalm 68:11, "The Lord gave the word and great was the company of those that published it." The word company in the original Hebrew language implies a female company!
