Let me hear Your lovingkindness in the morning;
For I trust in You;
Teach me the way in which I should walk;
For to You I lift up my soul.
Psalm 143:8
What does it say?

What questions do I have about what it says?
O What is God's lovingkindness?
O What does it mean to lift up my soul?
What does the text mean?
The psalmist is imploring God to remind him of the kindness and grace of God first thing in the day that his faith in the Lord might be renewed. He begs God to make his path clear and reaffirms that he has trusted his life and eternal soul to God.
How does the text apply to me?
I am convicted about not always starting my day with God but also struck by the truth that I need Him to prepare me for the day. LORD meet me in the morning that I might recieve strength and focus to embark upon the mission You have called me. Help me to not just pay You lip service but to also abide in You and take steps of faith that lead me in Your way.
