A Daily Devotion for Tuesday, May 13

Psalm 66:20

Praise be to God,

who has not rejected my prayer

or withheld his love from me.

This reminds me of my life verse, from the book of Psalms- 138:3. “ When I called, you answered me. You made me bold and stouthearted.” It is the human condition, I suppose, to try to fix things ourselves. How many times have I found myself wrestling with some worry in my head, over and over, sometimes for days, before It occurs to me to pray to God about this issue specifically? The fact that this still happens to me tells me I am not enough in communion with God throughout my day. And yet God hears my prayers, over and over, even when I have forgotten his grace and love for a short while.

Holy Lord, help me to keep you in the very front of my mind and heart, so that I never forget to turn to you, even for a minute. I am so thankful. Amen
