Emotional Meditation—By Micah Siemens The final verses of Psalm 61 lift their gaze toward the future, but without abandoning humility. The psalmist prays for the life of the king to be extended, for his years to endure across generations. This is not merely a political hope; it is a prayer for continuity, for stability in…

Emotional Meditation—By Micah Siemens The tone of Psalm 61 shifts gently here, not because circumstances have changed, but because memory enters the prayer. “For you have been my refuge, a strong tower against the enemy.” The psalmist looks backward, anchoring his present fear in past faithfulness. This is not nostalgia; it is survival. When the…

Emotional Meditation—By Micah Siemens Psalm 61 begins far from stability. “Hear my cry, O God; listen to my prayer.” The words feel urgent but not frantic, like someone calling out with the last of their strength. The psalmist locates himself “at the end of the earth,” a phrase that speaks less about geography and more…

Emotional Meditation—By Micah Siemens The final movement of Psalm 60 begins with a question, not a declaration: “Who will bring me to the fortified city?” After God has spoken with authority, the psalmist turns back to lived reality. Strongholds still exist. Obstacles remain. The road ahead is not suddenly clear just because God has reminded…

Emotional Meditation—By Micah Siemens After the trembling and disorientation of the opening verses, Psalm 60 shifts in an unexpected way: God speaks. Not to explain the suffering, not to apologize for the distance, but to declare ownership. The voice that enters the psalm is steady, authoritative, and unhurried. God names places—Shechem, Succoth, Gilead, Manasseh—as if…

Emotional Meditation—By Micah Siemens Psalm 60 begins with words we often fear to say out loud: “You have rejected us.” There is no buffer here, no softening phrase to protect God’s reputation or the psalmist’s own faith. The relationship feels fractured, and the psalmist names God as the one who feels absent. What strikes me…

A Snap-fiction story By Micah Siemens They called him a Wanderer, though he carried no map and never asked for shelter. He walked the old roads barefoot, a satchel at his side, and from that satchel he drew not gold nor weaponry, but a single thing: a living seed, pale as bone and warm as…

Emotional Meditation—By Micah Siemens The night returns. The enemies still prowl. The danger has not magically disappeared. And yet—David sings. That alone is striking. This is not praise after rescue; this is praise in the presence of unresolved tension. The same voices that snarled earlier still echo, but they no longer dominate the psalmist’s heart.…

Emotional Meditation—By Micah Siemens There is a subtle shift here. David is still surrounded, still threatened—but he is no longer frantic. He lifts his eyes higher. The danger has not vanished, yet his confidence has deepened. He entrusts judgment to God rather than grasping for it himself. “You are my strength; I watch for you.”…

Emotional Meditation—By Micah Siemens As night falls, the threat does not fade—it grows louder. The enemies return again and again, restless and unsatisfied, like wild dogs roaming the city streets. Their presence is unsettling not only because of what they might do, but because of what they say. Their mouths pour out violence, mockery, and…
