How can I incorporate the Psalms in 2024? Looking ahead I challenged myself to read through the Psalms in 2024. After thinking about that, I realized it’s not exactly much of a challenge. How about meditating through the Psalms in a year?
The post, The Lion, Mr. Strickland and The Silver Chair, described meditation, both the simplicity and the value of meditation or listening to God. As Richard Foster pointed out, by assimilating God’s word into our thinking and living, it infiltrates our spirit and our soul. It becomes part of our lives.
In that vein, I’ve shared a reading plan below to meditate on the Psalms over the course of the year. Unlike many reading plans, this plan is divided into weeks, which provides more freedom but also gives more time to chew on the individual Psalms. The readings are a reasonable length so that they can be repeated enabling the reader to think about that scripture throughout the week. There are fifty weeks which allows for a two week break.
You might come across verses that resonate with you, that you highlight or underline and that you want to commit to memory. You can also journal as you read through the Psalms and see how God speaks to you.
I invite you to join me in meditating the Psalms for 2024. There is a link to download a pdf version, or scroll further to see the entire schedule. Blessings for 2024!
