Good morning,
Psalm 131 My heart is not proud, O Lord, my eyes are not haughty;
I do not concern myself with great matters or things too wonderful for me.
But I have stilled and quieted my soul; like a weaned child with its mother, like a weaned child is my soul within me.
- Life will always be chaotic.
- Either you try to be the god of your own life and concern yourself with things too high for you.
- Or you remember that you are a child of God, resting on Him like a child with his mother.
- "When you stop trying to control your life and instead allow your anxieties and problems to bring you to God in prayer, you shift from worry to watching. You watch God weave his patterns in the story of your life. Instead of trying to be out front, designing your life, you realise you are inside God's drama. As you wait, you begin to see him work, and your life begins to sparkle with wonder. You are learning to trust again." Paul Miller, A Praying Life.
Prayer:
Lord Jesus Christ, I know that if I only prayed when I had the ideal spiritual state that I would almost never pray. Thank you that the chaos of life creates opportunities for me to speak to you and learn to trust you. I know I can trust you Jesus, since you proved your love for me on the cross. Amen
Regards
Rev. Kruger de Kock
