New Psalms and Other Thoughts

Although Michael Burch became a Christian early in life, it wasn't until the last eight years that he became closest to God. Through some tragedies and periods of darkness in Michael’s life, he began to draw closer to Him. Michael still struggles at times with what it means to wait on God and to be still. He has seen God use the lessons of his sufferings to teach him to have a high level of sensitivity and compassion for those who are struggling and broken. Michael truly desires to be a vessel for God's service and purpose.

God gave Michael the writings in this book during a three-week period in 2009 and the pen-and-ink drawings during a two-week period in 2011. There has to be a reason why this happened, and he believes that it did because he needed to share them with others. Michael has since retired from law enforcement and currently resides with his wife and youngest daughter near Denver, Colorado.
