Welcome to Word-Filled Wednesday, hosted this week by Penny at Pennyraine. Be sure to stop by her blog for more visual inspiration from scripture.
I love this psalm, the song that's inspired by it, AND the image. We sometimes get deer at the pond in our back yard (this is NOT a picture of one of them, by the way). Glad we can help quench that thirst--but only the Lord can quench ours.
As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for You, O God. Psalm 42:1 NIV
Be sure to stop by Pennyraine for more .
Join me to learn about my writing journey, as well as my editing and proofreading services. I would love to help you!
