A New Year, A New Day

January, 10, 2008

I am always comforted by David, the Psalmist and his candid way of letting God know just how he felt about things, and then he ended up praising Him. No matter where this poet began, he always ended with worshiping God. I want my life to be like David's Psalms. Even though I may gripe or complain, or seem discontented, I want my days, weeks, months, and years to end in praise to the Living God, just as David did. Augustine couldn't have said it any better: Our hearts are restless until they find their rest in Thee."
Oh God, help me to rest in You. I don't know what each day holds for me, but help me to rest in the mystery of this journey called life.
More on this later...
