Psalm 131 (MSG)
God, I'm not trying to rule the roost,
I don't want to be king of the mountain.
I haven't meddled where I have no business
or fantasized grandiose plans.
I've kept my feet on the ground,
I've cultivated a quiet heart.
Like a baby content in its mother's arms,
my soul is a baby content.
Wait, Israel, for God. Wait with hope.
Hope now; hope always!
Oh, how I want this to be true of my heart, to fully release the control that I feel like I have to have over my life! To not want to be king of my life! To relinquish all control to Him who is able, to Him who truly is in control of it all! To cultivate a quiet heart, for my soul to be content!
Can you relate?
