Day 131

Father, 

We praise You for sending us the help of YOU. You are our one true sanctuary and our only hope. Thank You for meeting us in our need, which we know is every hour of every day. 

As we’ve tried to be our own sources of hope and stability, we’ve been suspicious of people who have tried to show us kindness. We’ve foolishly acted like Hanun’s advisors by relying on our own strength and direction. We confess and repent of our arrogance. We turn from our sins and turn to You and ask You to make our hearts clean.

Give us hearts that desire the right things, give us hearts that lean into You for directions and plan. Then, like David, we can rightfully pray these words: Would You grant us our heart’s desire and fulfill all our plans! May we shout for joy over Your salvation, and in Your name set up our banners! May You fulfill all our petitions! Now we know that You save Your anointed; You will answer us from Your holy heaven with the saving might of Your right hand. Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God. 

We surrender our lives to You, Lord our God—every moment of our day, each decision we make, we yield our will and way to Your perfect will and way. 

We love You too. Amen.
