“ Satisfy us in the morning with your unfailing love…” |
—Psalm 90:14 |
Every day, we who follow the Lord Jesus Christ, find ourselves in God’s classroom. He brings things across our pathway in order to teach us lessons we need to learn.
The Psalmist expresses this reality so very well in a prayer recorded in Psalm 90:12, 13b, 14:
Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.
Have compassion on your servants.
Satisfy us in the morning with your unfailing love, that we may sing for joy and be glad all our days.
In the midst of the most difficult of lessons, God always shows us His love and compassion. No matter how difficult or frustrating any particular lesson might seem, God always treats us as His dearly loved children.
God’s love for us always triumphs over our difficulty in learning a particular lesson. No matter how we might struggle to learn, God’s love always satisfies the needs of our hearts and minds.
Therefore, we can rejoice as we begin another day in the classroom of our loving Father.
