“Do you seek the goodness of God throughout the day? If not, why not?”
The media often focuses on negative news to grab our attention, making us constantly feel worried and anxious. The constant negativity and life circumstances may cause us not to enjoy the present moments or experience inner peace. So, what can we do about this?
Let’s consider David’s life. Despite facing many challenges as a shepherd, fighting bears and lions, defeating a giant, being pursued by King Saul, and dealing with his shortcomings, David openly expresses his feelings in the Book of Psalms. He cries out to God, finds comfort, rejoices, and, most importantly, seeks God with hope. Regardless of his struggles, he presents his requests to God and waits with hope.
Why not start living with a hopeful expectation from God every day?
Scripture
“In the morning, Lord, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait expectantly.”
Psalm 5:3
Prayer
Dear Father God,
Blessed be our lives that you saw fit to wake us again this morning! Please let us present our requests before you and wait expectantly. Fulfill our requests as you see fit, which may differ from what we think is best for ourselves. Thank you that we can have hope and expect you to meet us each day in every way we need you.
In Jesus’ name, I humbly pray.
Amen.
