Lord You Are My Refuge

Scripture Psalms 142:5 I cried out to You, O LORD: I said, “You are my refuge, My portion in the land of the living.

Observation: There is no one else I should be crying out to. Only my Lord knows me and knows what I need. He is my only refuge and I need to draw close to Him in times of trouble. My ears need to be attentive to His words and desires for my life. He is the reason that I exist and only He has the direction that I should take.

Application: I need to stop complaining to others about things that happen to me. I need to take my complaint to my God and have Him open my eyes to what I should be doing. I’m sure as I take my complaints to Him, He’ll open my eyes to see I may have nothing to complain about and show me all that He has already done, but only in Him do I trust.

Prayer: My Lord you are my everything and I need to be close to you in all that I do and say. May I always be obedient in what you call your servant to do for my desire is to please. Form me into the vessel you desire.
