“On God my salvation and my glory rest; the rock of my strength, my refuge is in God. Trust in Him at all times, O people; pour out your heart before Him; God is a refuge for us.” (Psalm 62:7-8)
Are you in the Lord? Is He the rock of your salvation? Are you looking for the Lord to conform to your ideas or are you conforming to who He is? Pour out your heart before the Lord and see that He will walk with you and cleanse your mind and give you a new heart, made right and filled with His righteousness. Be guided by the One who made you and take refuge in Him alone.
Lord, I hear the words and know the testimonies I have received, yet I walk in the ways of this world. Help me, I pray, to live into the life to which You have called me knowing that only in You is there hope and a future. Guide me now and always according to Your life-giving Word that I would walk as one who believes and know the truth You have revealed once for all and live under the shadow of Your wings.
Lord Jesus, I need you today and every day, for I am easily distracted and led in so many directions, all of which are away from You. Help me in my time of need to see the better portion and to walk according to the way You have established. Lead me now and always according to Your Word that I may walk in the way of salvation. You are the rock of my strength; lead me to rest in You. Amen.
