Day 199: Psalms 23-24; Acts 20:1-16
At 4:20 a.m. our neighbor's door slammed. After he/she returned from getting coffee (presumably), on went the TV at a volume we could hear and then the incessant vibration of the phone started, making returning to sleep impossible. Rather than stew, I decided to pray. Don't get me wrong, stewing was my default. Since it was early, even for me, my prayer started with something I was reminded to do recently...pray and praise the attributes of God through the alphabet. A = Almighty; B = Bountiful; C = Compassionate, etc. What a wonderful alternative to stewing! I am certain you are aware that Psalm 23 is an acrostic Psalm: A Shepherd is my LORD; By His hand I have all I need, etc. Here's my challenge to you: make your own acrostic Psalm, even from A to K; or, pray an acrostic prayer using the alphabet. Let me know how it goes?

I like this idea. Think I will work on this today. -Also, stifling the urge to "stew." I could make endless pots!
