Psalm 5  My King and my God

Engage with David in this psalm. Note how many times he praises God.”Lord, in the morning you will hear me; in the morning I will present my case to you and then wait expectantly for an answer.” 

Each morning as I sit with the scriptures I look for something to guide me through the day and this verse is one that echoes my prayer. My King and my God hears when I awaken and sit before Him. As I pray, I list my requests and then as David says, I will wait expectantly for Him to answer. Sometimes the answer is no, other times it is yes and then sometimes it is wait. The last is the hardest and in my impatience sometimes I echo that prayer again and again. How about you? 

Further the psalmist writes what is on his heart: “as for me, because of your great faithfulness I will enter your house; I will bow down toward your holy temple as I worship you.” In the wee hours of the day I enter my sanctuary of my office, and I do as he did, worship Him. How do you worship? Do you sing? Do you pray? What is the way you worship your King and your God?
