Psalms 17:15
But I in
justice shall behold your face; on waking, I shall be content in your presence.
Upon waking up in the
morning, you would go straight to your normal morning ritual – fixing the bed,
going to the bathroom, eating breakfast, taking a bath, dressing up and off to
work. Where is the car key? Where is my lunch box? Where are the kids? An hour into the morning, and you are already
dishelved, frustrated and a mess.
Most of the time, we always take common
things for granted. That the sun will
rise in the morning, that you will hear the chirping of the birds tomorrow,
that you would be alive the next day.
And still, we would blame God for every bad things that would happen to
us. Isn’t that unfair?
Live a life of contentment in His presence. Not a contentment that comes from
possessions, activities, or other people, for these can be changed or taken
away. But a life of contentment that
comes from our relationship with Jesus Christ.
There is absolutely nothing that can take that away.
Contentment frees you to enjoy every good
thing God has given you. Contentment demonstrates your belief that God loves
you and has your best interest in mind.
Wake up in His presence… thanking Him for
another day and start your day contented and full of peace.
Let us pray +
Almighty Father, blessed are we, because we
have known You! Blessed are we, because
we have believed in You! Blessed are we,
because we bear Your wounds and the sign of Your Blood on our countenances! Blessed are we, because You are our great
hope! Blessed are we, because You are
our God forever!
Amen +
The Lord will not abandon his people.
