Heavenly Father, thank You for the words of wisdom from the psalmist who fled to You in times of trouble and found in You his exceeding joy. Thank You that You are the joy of my salvation and the strength of my heart. Ignite in my heart a faith that holds fast to my hope in You, and I pray that the trials that I am facing today would be food upon which my trust in You will feed. May I never forget that Your grace is sufficient and made perfect in my weakness. Help me to fan into flame my faith in You, even when oppressed and discouraged. Thank You, in Jesus' name, AMEN.
