Desire
“Whom have I in heaven but You?
And there is nothing on earth that I desire besides you.
My flesh and my heart may fail,
But God is the strength of my heart and my
portion forever."
Psalm 73:25-26
This Psalm was written by Asaph, a song leader in the
tabernacle, appointed by David. Throughout the Psalm he laments how the wicket
and arrogant seem to prosper. As the Psalm concludes he realizes that the value
of what we have as believers is eternal. His faith in the Lord is strengthened when
He looks to the Lord, not to the world. Things of the world will end and fail, but God
is eternal.
What do you truly
desire?
Is is the Lord? Are you sure?
What do your words and actions show that you desire
the most?
Take some time today to think about what you truly desire—and if/how
your words and actions show this. How do you show your desire for the Lord through your words and actions?
