Good Morning from Splendor Inn. Today’s portion of scripture is the last half of David’s prayer. It can be taken separately from the first half and still stand strong in context. It is very apropos for when you are at wits end, or in the middle of a long week. You can lean on its truth to get you through, because in itself it is truth. Psalm 16:5-11 (GenevaBible) 5 The Lord is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou shalt maintain my lot. 6 The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places: yea, I have a fair heritage. 7 I will praise the Lord, who hath given me counsel: my reins also teach me in the nights. 8 I have set the Lord always before me: for he is at my right hand: therefore I shall not slide. 9 Wherefore mine heart is glad, and my tongue rejoiceth: my flesh also doth rest in hope. 10 For thou wilt not leave my soul in the grave: neither wilt thou suffer thine holy One to see corruption. 11 Thou wilt show me the path of life: in thy presence is the fullness of joy: and at thy right hand there are pleasures forevermore. Psalm 16:5-11 (NIV) 5 LORD, you have assigned me my portion and my cup; you have made my lot secure. 6 The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; surely I have a delightful inheritance. 7 I will praise the LORD, who counsels me; even at night my heart instructs me. 8 I have set the LORD always before me. Because he is at my right hand, I will not be shaken. 9 Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices; my body also will rest secure, 10 because you will not abandon me to the grave, nor will you let your Holy One see decay. 11 You have made known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand. Sometimes when we are spent and there is nothing that we can do to take control of situations we have to let go and let God. Claiming this truth will give you peace. From Splendor Inn Dr. Skip Lewis
