Abide: Praying the PsalmsSample

PRAYING SCRIPTURE

Psalm 131:1–2

Those whom God pulls from the pit (Ps 130:1) remember their salvation. They recognize that they would still be stuck in their sin without God. For this reason, in this psalm, David said he did not have a prideful heart (v. 1). He did not consume himself with topics that were beyond his understanding. As David said, the outcome of that humility is inner rest, a calm and quiet soul (v. 2). Meditate on this psalm, asking God to give you rest in His grace.
