From Psalm 17: Awake to What?

“…when I awake, I will be satisfied with your presence” (v. 15).

Maybe you’re like me.

When I awake…I worry.

When I awake, my mind is flooded with the day’s concerns—not to mention yesterday’s, or tomorrow’s.

When I awake, fear and anxiety and stress threaten to derail me from the first moment.

But I know Him.

I know His goodness and His grace and His salvation. In the face of a thousand worries, I see His face. And He roots me in both security…and eternity.

Instead of awaking to all that other stuff, I will awake, and be satisfied with His presence.
