Create in
me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away
from Your presence and take not Your Holy Spirit from me. Restore onto me the
joy of Your salvation and uphold me with Your free Spirit. Psalm 51: 11-13
You may have sung
these words on a Sunday morning. These words are in a traditional church hymn
sung through the ages. What beautiful words to sing to our God. Not feeling joy-filled
at the present moment? The joy of our salvation wanes and weaves from our
hearts and minds as we live out our lives. But God will restore that joy to you
as you continue to ask Him for His holy presence in your life.
God’s presence is
not always a tangible, emotional feeling. But believe it; He is ever-present!
It takes faith and trust in a God who is more than able and available. He
watches over your life.
The Lord
will watch over your coming and going, both now and forevermore. Psalm 121:8
A reason to
rejoice! Your salvation in Christ brings great joy. His ever-present guidance
is available right now this very minute. Ask Him to restore your joy and be
filled with His free and willing Holy Spirit.
Jesus,
We ask for Your complete joy to fill us today. Thank You for
watching over us all the time. Remind us of the heaven to come.
Amen
