This book contains 75 prayers drawn from Psalms 1-75, providing lyrical sketches of what authors Ryan Whitaker Smith and Dan Wilt have seen, heard, and felt while sojourning in the Psalms. While each prayer corresponds to a particular psalm and touches on its themes and ideas, it is not a new translation of the Psalms or an attempt to modernize or contextualize their content or language. Rather, the prayers are responses to the Psalms written in harmony with Scripture. These prayers help us quiet our hearts before God and welcome us into a safe place amid the storms of life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis artful, poetic, and classic devotional book features compelling custom illustrations and beautiful hardcover binding, offering a fresh way to reflect on and pray the Psalms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBack Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRediscover the Rich Treasures of the Psalms\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eDrawn from Psalms 1-75 - Volume 1\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eSheltering Mercy\u003c\/i\u003e helps you rediscover the Psalms--through free-verse prayer renderings of their poems and hymns--as a guide to personal devotion and meditation.
