Psalm 92

v. 14 (The Righteous) will still bear fruit in old age, they will stay fresh and green,


Father in Heaven, I want to finish well.  I want to be righteous.  I need you to grab me and keep me connected to the vine.  You are the vine, Jesus.  I am the branch.  Apart from you I can do nothing.  Help me to abide in you.  My Lord, and my God.  Make me fruitful for your glory.  Amen.

Psalm 90

v. 14 Satisfy us in the morning with your unfailing love, that we may sing for joy and be glad all our days.

Lord God, that's the word I need right there.  Satisfy.  Lord, satisfy me with your love.  Do not let me look elsewhere for what can only be found in You.  Although I know that my happiness and gladness are not the ultimate goal, they are important to me.  Often they are far too important, and I put myself first.  Lord, show me that I can love the way you love.  Teach me to do it.  Love others through me.  Teach me to push myself aside.  Satisfy me with your unfailing love.  You never fail.  Your love never fails.  I love you and I need you.  Amen.

Lord, your Kingdom is eternal.  You have always kept your promises to David, and to us.  Jesus, you are the King.  You are the Son of David.  You are the Son of God.  You are King, forever and ever.  I worship you and give you praise.  I know that you are God.  Amen.
