Psalm 104:10-13


It is good to rest in the arms of God who made you and provides all that you need to thrive through His love!

Psalm 104, a wisdom psalm, is also a creation psalm. It is an exuberant poetic recasting of Gen. 1, a joyful celebration of the world as the creation of God. The poetry of the psalmists and the prophets often reflects upon God’s work in creation. The structure of the poem is: (1) praise for God’s great creation; (2) the creation of the heavens; (3) the creation of the earth; (4) the waters of blessing; (5) the fullness of the earth; (6) the patterns of life; (7) praise for God’s great creation; (8) an acknowledgment that all life is dependent upon the Lord; (9) a prayer for God’s glory; (10) a personal response to God.

Psalm 104:10-13

10 He sends the springs into the valleys; 
They flow among the hills. 
11 They give drink to every beast of the field; 
The wild donkeys quench their thirst. 
12 By them the birds of the heavens have their home; 
They sing among the branches. 
13 He waters the hills from His upper chambers; 
The earth is satisfied with the fruit of Your works.
