Emotional Meditation—By Micah Siemens Some faith is learned before it is chosen. Psalm 44 opens not with personal testimony, but with memory—handed down, repeated, rehearsed until it becomes part of the soul’s vocabulary. “O God, we have heard with our ears, our fathers have told us…” This is faith inherited. Stories passed across generations like…

Emotional Meditation—By Micah Siemens Psalm 43 feels like the quiet continuation of a long, sleepless night. Not a new chapter—just the next breath after Psalm 42’s ache. The psalmist hasn’t found resolution yet. He hasn’t found answers. But he’s still praying. And sometimes that alone is its own miracle. “Vindicate me, O God, and defend…

Emotional Meditation—By Micah Siemens If the first half of this psalm is the ache of longing, these last verses are what it feels like when longing turns into exhaustion. “My soul is cast down within me; therefore I remember You…” It’s striking—David doesn’t say, “My soul is cast down, therefore I fight harder,” or, “therefore…

Emotional Meditation—By Micah Siemens There are some passages in Scripture that don’t whisper—they sigh. Psalm 42 opens with that kind of breath, the kind that escapes before you can control it. “As the deer pants for flowing streams, so pants my soul for You, O God.” It’s not a polished metaphor. It’s the picture of…

Emotional Meditation—By Micah Siemens These closing verses of the psalm feel like the exhale after a long night of wrestling. The earlier lines carried betrayal, confusion, inner collapse—but here, quietly, David begins to rise. Not because the circumstances changed, but because the Presence holding him did. “But You, O LORD, be gracious to me, and…

Emotional Meditation—By Micah Siemens There are some pains that cut deeper than sin or failure or exhaustion—pains that come wrapped in familiarity. Psalm 41:6–9 steps into that territory with no hesitation, no sugarcoat, no distance. The psalmist describes the slow ache of realizing that people who once seemed close… weren’t actually close at all. “Whenever…

Land of Aeloria: The Essentials of a Mage By Micah Siemens The storm above the Valley of Broken Echoes throbbed with violet lightning. Clouds churned like a wounded beast, and the wind carried whispers—voices that sounded almost human, yet hollow as abandoned wells. Arin, a thyst-mage of Aeloria—clutched her staff hard enough that her knuckles…

Emotional Meditation—By Micah Siemens There comes a moment in every believer’s life—and especially in the life of someone called toward shepherding—when the noise of everything else fades and your heart finally speaks the truth it’s been carrying. Psalm 41:4 begins with that moment. “O LORD, be gracious to me; heal me, for I have sinned…

Emotional Meditation—By Micah Siemens There are days when compassion feels costly. You pour yourself out for others, you listen to stories that weigh your heart down, you try to be present for people who are hurting—and somewhere inside, a quiet part of you wonders whether anyone sees the effort. Whether God sees. Whether it matters.…

Emotional Meditation—By Micah Siemens There’s a kind of desperation you only learn after you’ve walked with God for a while—the kind that comes not from doubt, but from deep familiarity. When you know exactly where your help comes from, the cry becomes sharper, more urgent, more honest. That’s how this final section feels. David, the…
