This is what I’m meditating on:
I wait for the Lord, my soul waits,
and in his word I put my hope.
My soul waits for the Lord
more than watchmen wait for the morning.
–Psalm 130:5-6
There’s so much to these verses. It talks about our source of hope, of being patient, of our soul longing for Christ. I love the metaphor of the watchmen… I can imagine him sitting on the wall of the city, waiting and watching, standing at attention, fully focused and committed.
Also, go check out Psalm 121, you’ll love it.
