Lord, we are captivated by David’s phrasing in Psalm 37. When we commit to You, we trust You. You will bring out our righteousness as light to shine Your glory. You will center us in justice, as noonday marks mid-day. We rest in You, for Your love prospers our hearts and souls. Lord, we wait upon You. Be glorified in our daily thoughts, words and deeds. We bring our reverence in Your name above all names and authority greater than any other, according to the good and perfect will of the Father. Amen.
“Commit your way to the LORD, Trust also in Him, And He shall bring it to pass. He shall bring forth your righteousness as the light, And your justice as the noonday. Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for Him; Do not fret because of him who prospers in his way, Because of the man who brings wicked schemes to pass. Cease from anger, and forsake wrath; Do not fret—it only causes harm. For evildoers shall be cut off; But those who wait on the LORD, They shall inherit the earth.” (Psalm 37: 5-9 NKJV)
