In Psalm 63:1, we witness David deeply cry out to God in desperate need of a touch from Him again. To be filled. To be satisfied. When he declares, "Early will I seek you," it's as if he's saying, "God, as soon as I wake up, I can't wait to meet/commune with you again."
He expresses how his soul and body literally crave the living God—recalling an intimate moment in the Presence of the Lord while in the wilderness, he meditates on how he beheld God's power and encountered His glory in the sanctuary, forever changed and never the same.
Our appetite.
That word means "to have a natural desire to satisfy a bodily need, to hunger, to crave." I remember going to bed the night before the next day, thinking about how I would make my coffee first thing in the morning. Of course, I got out of bed saying, "Lord, I thank you for another day," but my soul was thirsty for that first sip, not His heart, left unsatisfied.
I knew something was missing. I knew it was more than just me wanting "coffee." I was seeking comfort that only the Lord could fulfill in me. It wasn't until I began to turn my heart toward God, seek His face, and lay it all down before Him. My desire was renewed—my appetite reset. I started waking up to Jesus—my daily bread. Before any business tasks, client meetings, social media posting, and creative project launch, the most significant matter of importance was spending time with the Lord, seeking Him first.
Reflection: In your time today, what did the Lord highlight in your heart? What desires/ affection toward Him is being refreshed at this moment?
Activation: Pray into it.
