God is good, isn't He? After I prayed this morning, asking for this, that, and the other, I read Psalm 36, focusing mostly on the second half of the chapter. Put the Third Day music on in your head for verses 5 and 6.
"Your love, O LORD, reaches to the heavens, your faithfulness to the skies. Your righteousness is like the mighty mountains, your justice like the great deep. O LORD, you preserve both man and beast. How priceless is your unfailing love! Both high and low among men find refuge in the shadow of your wings. They feast on the abundance of your house; you give them drink from your river of delights. For with you is the fountain of life; in your light we see light. Continue your love to those who know you, your righteousness to the upright in heart" (Ps. 36:5-10).
We must monitor ourselves so that our prayers do not focus on ourselves. It is right for God's children to ask Him for protection, health, joy, and so on. But do not lose focus of God Himself. Praise Him daily for what He has done and for who He is.
