Psalm 132:7-8

 

Psalm 132:7-8

“Let us go to his dwelling place, let us worship at his footstool, saying, ‘Arise, Lord, and come to your resting place, you and the ark of your might.

I often ask You for guidance

And then go my own way.

But more often I ask without

Listening to what You say.

I need to lay my troubled thoughts,

Quietly, at Your feet.

Trusting that You have the answers

That will make them complete.

I need to listen when You speak,

To what You’re telling me,

That I might truly understand

All that I need to be.

I need to worship at Your feet,

Be still and heed Your Word.

Though I have asked You many times,

I’ve not listened… and heard.

I seek You, Lord, where I’ll find You,

Living within my heart.

Teach me to listen and to know,

And, then, to do my part.
