Day Twenty-Four: How I Pray Through Psalm 130

To you, Lord, I cry out. I cry out to no other.

I cry out from the lows – these deep places where
circumstances loom and whisper. Help me to see the unseen over the seen. Help
me to see I’m more than a mix of disbelief and attempts.

I know you hear me. I know you don’t remember my yesterdays
like I do. You meet cries for mercy with mercy. You forgive. You make new. You
replace the dark with the light of your son to all who believe. There is no
record of wrong, just one of right.

So …

I wait for you, Lord. My soul waits. In your word, in your
promises, I put my hope.

My soul waits for you, Lord. I will see your glory rise like
the sun, overturning the dark.

I will wait for you.
