Level Ground

Psalm 143:8-10

Let the morning bring me word of Your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in You. Show me the way I should go, for to You I entrust my life. Rescue me from my enemies, Lord, for I hide myself in You. Teach  me to do Your will, for You are my God; may Your good Spirit lead me on level ground."

This is my prayer, also. May I realize that His mercies are new each morning, and that He knows better than I the way I should go each day. I want to be teachable to learn about what He would want from me in every circumstance of my day, then my "enemies" will not prevail over me. My home is not the house I live in, but it is my Lord God, in Whom I dwell and have my being. Following in His footsteps will lead me into that level playing field where I will experience victory in every trial.

Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
