VERSE:
Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have
put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go, for to you I lift
up my soul.
-- Psalm 143:8

THOUGHT:
In nearly every disciple's life, there comes a time of
loneliness and doubt. It seems as if our prayer requests just
bounce off the ceiling and fall in broken pieces at our feet. God
seems distant, hiding, asleep, or unsympathetic to our cries for
mercy and help. Thankfully God gives us the Psalms. In the Psalms
we can find words for almost all of life's ups and downs. When we
are down, it is nice to know that others have been there before us
and have recovered their faith and vitality. But, there are just
some moments in life when we need to have God's reminders of his
love and guidance. This psalm and these words are made for such a
time. If the request in today's Scripture is not relevant to your
need, then please, pray these words for someone else. If, on the
other hand, they speak to you then please, pray them for yourself!
PRAYER:
Dear Father, please make your presence undeniably known in my
life and help me clearly see your presence and mercy. I want to
honor you, dear God, but please make your guidance clear so that I
can follow you boldly and faithfully in your will. In Jesus' name I
pray. Amen.
