Psalms for Praying: An Invitation to Wholeness | Nan C. Merrill

2 posts

Every commentary on the Book of Psalms has had to face the issue that many of these prayers commemorate and celebrate wrath and vengeance. What is needed is not ingenious exegetical rationalization of ancient texts, but the kind of transformation into a work of piety and art that is provided here.Addressed are the needs of a world seeking to counter individual and societal injustices by a global peace born of personal peace through prayer and practice. In short, here is the Book of Psalms recast in the light of the continuing revelation and evolution of the authentic religious spirit of the scriptures.

Psalms for Praying: An Invitation to Wholeness | Nan C. Merrill

Nan Merrill's version of the Psalms is incredibly lyrical and imaginative. This one is especially appropriate for where I am right now, tonight, in my life.

Psalms for Praying: An Invitation to Wholeness | Nan C. Merrill

I saw my spiritual director this morning and she lent me this book. So far I've dipped into a few random psalms and I love these paraphrases! I'm hoping they will focus my mind as I try to spend time with God in silence especially in this time that I need to make a big decision. Life has been crazy lately but hopefully I can have a short rest before the next project.

Crazeedi I hope as you seek and ask, you will find, God bless 5y

Suet624 Best wishes to you. Listening and surrendering are hard to do but so meaningful. 5y
