Links for the Weekend (2025-04-25)

Each Friday, I’ll post links to 3–5 resources from around the web you may want to check out.

He Cares for Us

Paul Levy reflects on both caring for others and being cared for by others. He connects both to God’s care for us.

We care for those things and people that are precious to us, and God cares for us because we are precious to Him in His Son. So cast your cares and your worries on Him, because He cares for you.

The Themes of Exile and Return Are Seen Throughout the Psalms

This Crossway article explains how the structure of the book of Psalms helps us to see some of its themes emerge.

Gerald Wilson has argued that the psalms that begin and end each book serve as thematic “seams” that stitch the otherwise diverse psalms together. Thus a discernable pattern emerges that matches the narratological flow of the entire Old Testament, emphasizing exile and hope for return. The definitive turning points are the rise of David, crowning of Solomon, descent into exile, and rising of Israel out of exile into a new creation.

Two Poems

I have two poems to offer you this week.

• March Morning, by Steven Knepper — This is a delightful poem about the joy of a spring morning.
• Sunrise, by Sally Thomas — This poem is about sunrise on that first Resurrection Sunday.
