“Your testimonies are wonderful; therefore my soul observes them.  The unfolding of Your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple.  I opened my mouth wide and panted, For I longed for Your commandments.”  (Psalm 119:129-131)

Do you long for the revelation of the Lord?  Too many quickly read and then forget.  They do not savor the Word the Lord gives which is like a rich mine that never ends.  Do not become weary of what the Lord will say for He will uncover the layers of goodness that He has for those who come to Him.  The Lord is the fount of all goodness and He freely shares with those who come to Him.

Lord teach me to love the inner parts of the truth You reveal through prayer, meditation and the reading of Your Word.  Guide me according to Your goodness to see more each day.  Do not let me weary of growing in the grace You have given me, but come to the place where I delight in all that You have in store for Your faithful.  Lead me in Your Spirit to grow in wisdom and stature.

Thank You Lord Jesus for preparing and leading the way.  Lead me this day in what You know I need to discover.  Guide me according to Your goodness to see in You the hope for all people.  Lead me in the way of righteousness that I would learn to walk as You walked upon the earth.  Prepare me and help me to willingly be prepared for all that You have in store for me as Your faithful servant.  Amen.
