Diane's Psalm

My friend Diane Walker sent me this thoughtful, 
        reflective, original psalm. Thanks Diane!

Lord, you created me for this time and place,
            my very being is treasured by you.
                        My soul wells up with hallelujahs!

You’ve gifted me to serve your Kingdom
            revealed to fulfill your purpose.
                        My soul wells up with hallelujahs!

You’ve showered me with blessings,
            in marriage, motherhood, and friends.
                        My soul wells up with hallelujahs!

Christ suffered so I might enter eternity,
            your holy son for this sinful woman.
                        My soul wells up with hallelujahs!

Your Spirit interceded my sinful thoughts,
            forgiveness washed me clean.
                        My soul wells up with hallelujahs!

Your Word made known brought hope and direction,
            an illumination of past, present, future.
                        My soul wells up with hallelujahs!

With thanksgiving and praise,
            I look forward.
