Psalm 131- Confident Peace

 “Lord, my heart is not proud; my eyes are not haughty. I do not get involved with things too great or too wondrous for me. Instead, I have calmed and quieted my soul like a weaned child with its mother; my soul is like a weaned child. Israel, put your hope in the Lord, both now and forever.”

‭‭Psalms‬ ‭131‬:‭1‬-‭3‬ ‭CSB‬‬

Read Context

What a picture of peace, tranquility and rest…a toddler just hanging out with his mother.  Going into a stressful situation?  No problem, I’m just going to be held by mommy…everything will be just fine!  Not a care in the world…that is how we can live with God as our Father and Jesus as our Savior!  Always at peace, no fear, no anxiety, just extreme confidence in Gods ability to handle every situation…

Lord, when this is not how I am living, please remind me that it is not up to me to get through the situation…help me to remember that You are by my side, and nothing is outside your grasp.  I trust You, Lord!  Help my unbelief!!!
