A wonderful Psalm with which to return to the blog. (In case you were wondering, I was on special assignment. It’s top secret, though. Sorry.) The One In Charge is indeed a constant companion and a source of endless love. 5Your steadfast love, O Lord, extends to the heavens, your faithfulness to the clouds. 6Your righteousness [...]

Sistertech understands where the Psalmist is coming from. There are those clients that seem to suck the joy out of going to work. But The One In Charge can and does help turn that around. Psalm 90:13-17 13Turn, O Lord! How long? Have compassion on your servants! 14Satisfy us in the morning with your steadfast love, [...]

From Psalm 33 20Our soul waits for the Lord; he is our help and shield. 21Our heart is glad in him, because we trust in his holy name. 22Let your steadfast love, O Lord, be upon us, even as we hope in you.

Sistertech so admires the steadfastness of St. Polycarp. People seem so fickle these days, don’t they? But here was an individual who would not renounce his Christian faith. Psalm 121 addresses the kind of faith that Polycarp had. The One In Charge will never abandon us. 1I lift up my eyes to the hills— from [...]

We remember this day Eric Liddell, the “Flying Scotsman”, the star runner depicted in the movie Chariots of Fire. He famously refused to run on a Sunday in the 1924 Paris Olympics.  The Psalm today evoke those flying feet! Psalm 18 31For who is God except the Lord? And who is a rock besides our [...]

It’s going to be a long day today. People get the idea that we rest on the Sabbath. As if. Hello! We’re on 24/7. I used to work the midnight shift. We do not call it the  “graveyard shift”. I made a mistake once and called it that. Didn’t go over well. No. Not at [...]

Today Sistertech remembers Frederick Douglass (born Frederick Augustus Washington Bailey, circa 1818 – February 20, 1895). He’s one of the most important figures in both African American and United States history. Have you read his narrative about his years in slavery? About learning how to read? Amazing stuff.  For one who fought for the abolition [...]

Isn’t Psalm 35 a balm for troubled souls? Sistertech thinks it is. Yes, I am an angel, but I’ll let you in on a secret: we’re not perfect. You probably heard of the guy on The Other Side. Sistertech’s competitor. The guy really has a way with words, I’ll say. He can persuade people to [...]

The forgiveness Psalm. The compassion Psalm. The ashes Psalm. Psalm 103. 8The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love. 9He will not always accuse, nor will he keep his anger for ever. 10He does not deal with us according to our sins, nor repay us according to our iniquities. [...]

What an unusual Psalm of the Day! Psalm 94. Or perhaps I should say a fairly typical one. Here the Psalmist appears to be railing, as is often the case, because of some real or perceived slight. This time the accused is The One In Charge. As if! I think the Psalm is a good [...]
