"A man prayed, and at first he thought that prayer was talking. But he became more and more quiet until in the end, he realized that prayer is listening." — Søren Kierkegaard

Yesterday was a rough, draining day.  Thank you, God, for your constance presence.

Psalm 119:131-136

Easy-to-Read Version (ERV)

¹³¹ My desire to hear your commands is so strong
    that I wait with open mouth, gasping for breath.
¹³² Look at me, and be kind to me,
    just as you always are to those who love your name.
¹³³ Guide me, as you promised.
    Don’t let evil rule over me.
¹³⁴ Save me from those who want to hurt me,
    and I will obey your instructions.
¹³⁵ Accept your servant,
    and teach me your laws.
¹³⁶ I have cried a river of tears
    because people don’t obey your teachings.
