📑Psalm 131:2
But I have calmed and quieted myself, I am like a weaned child with its mother; like a weaned child I am content.
The language and flow of this psalm suggest that the writer, David, had experienced something that provoked serious reflection. Have you experienced a disappointment, defeat, or failure that prompted thoughtful, reflective prayer? What do you do when you are humbled by life’s circumstances? When you fail a test or lose a job or experience the end of a relationship? David poured out his heart to the Lord and in the process did a bit of honest soul-searching and inventory (Psalm 131:1). In making peace with his circumstances, he found contentment like that of a young child who was satisfied with simply being with his or her mother (v. 2).
Life’s circumstances change and sometimes we are humbled. Yet we can be hopeful and content knowing that there is One who has promised to never leave or forsake us. We can trust Him fully.
We must be contented on what God has given unto us. If we have some anxieties, problems and down moments, all we need to do is to be still and trust God!
God has a great plan for each and everyone of us.
For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord , “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
Jeremiah 29:11 NIV
We just need to trust His promises! 💓
🙏Prayer: Father, when things change in my life, help me not to be anxious but to trust You and find contentment in You alone.
HAVE A GREAT AND BLESSED DAY AHEAD!
THANK YOU FOR STOPPING BY!
