This introductory message demonstrates the composition and different perspectives of reading the Psalms. Much like a quilt, the book of Psalms contains the original songs of prayer and praise to the LORD written by men who lived through the struggles and triumphs of what it means to be a human. Those 150 psalms, were then stitched together in such a way as to reveal the Messiah, Jesus! Psalms is not primarily a book of humanity going to the divine but the divine coming down to humanity and Psalms is his story, the story of Jesus, the story of the Gospel! It is through the power of Jesus that we then pick up the Psalms and find them so meaningful to us!
