A Scripture and a Prayer: “Trust and Delight in God”

“Trust in the Lord, and do good, dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness. Delight yourself also in the Lord, and He shall give you the desires of your heart.” (Psalm 37:3-4)

Prayer:

Lord, from this wonderful promise, You have made it clear that our need is not just to trust You, but to allow that trust to dictate our actions. Help us, therefore, to stay in the milk and meat of Your word, so that we can truly feed and feast on Your faithfulness towards us. May we also delight in You, and look forward to the gift You have promised, and that is, the desires of our hearts, which has been and should always be a close and personal relationship with You. And so, may we always be mindful of Your constant presence in our lives, and may we do good and delight ourselves in Your wonderful presence. And this I ask in Jesus’s name. AMEN
