Days 69-76: Psalm 138: 1-3

It has been over a week! I cannot believe how easy it is to get "busy" and forget to post something.

I give you thanks, O LORD, with my whole heart;
before the gods I sing your praise;
I bow down toward your holy temple
and give thanks to your name for your steadfast love and your faithfulness,
for you have exalted above all things
your name and your word.
On the day I called, you answered me;
my strength of soul you increased.
-Psalm 138: 1-3

Father, you are faithful! You are loving! Your name is highest above all! Lord, I do praise you, but I have failed in praising you with my whole heart. I hold back in fear of earthly concerns; I let anxiety take over in my life; I do not release my heart's control to you in EVERY situation. Thank you for loving me anyway. Thank you for showing me how to let go and for taking my life through trials and suffering so that I have opportunities to give my heart to you fully. Thank you for the past 21 months! I have learned so much about giving my life to you, but I am no where close to understanding your ways. Father, teach me more about your love. Show me patience and give me the strength to show patience to others. Supply the words on my tongue so that others may know I am yours.
Thank you for a week of rest; may I be productive in seeking your way for my life. Thank you for sustaining me!

In Christ's name, Amen!
