Wait Expectantly

Psalm 5:1-12

When embarking on a journey the best time to get good directions is before you begin.

In this psalm, we have a wonderful example of how to begin each day: ‘Listen to my cry for help, my King and my God, for to you I pray. In the morning, O Lord, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait expectantly’ (v.2–3). David is ‘waiting for directions’ (v.8, MSG)

There is something special about beginning your day by laying your requests before God. The whole day has a different dimension as you ‘wait expectantly’ (v.3).
