Thoughts on Today's Verse...

Can your faith remain strong during trying times? I hope mine can! This is a Psalm written during trying times. However, no matter how difficult the situation seemed, the Psalmist still knew who God is and believed what God can do when he decides to do it. Even in trial, the psalmist doesn't lose sight of the blessings that come from the Lord being present. So, he says that the Lord's presence and love will be with him and save him. Let's choose to pray that same prayer:
Let your face shine upon your servant; save me in your unfailing love.

My Prayer...

Father, please make your presence known in my life. I am confident you are there; I just need to experience your presence in a tangible way and receive your salvation in all of its fullness, with confidence. So in Jesus' name, I expectantly pray that you will grant the prayer of the psalmist, which is also my prayer, today. Amen.
