Morning Psalms

This morning as I was going through some psalms searching for verses about God's guidance, here is what I found:

"To You, O Lord, I lift up my soul. O my God, in You I trust, do not let me be ashamed; do not let my enemies exult over me. Indeed, none of those who wait for You will be ashamed; those who deal treacherously without cause will be ashamed. MAKE ME KNOW YOUR WAYS, O LORD; TEACH ME YOUR PATHS. LEAD ME IN YOUR TRUTH AND TEACH ME, FOR YOU ARE THE GOD OF MY SALVATION; FOR YOU I WAIT ALL THE DAY."
Psalm 25:1-5

"The earth is the Lord's and all it contains, the world, and those who dwell in it. For He has founded it upon the seas and established it upon the rivers. Who may ascend into the hill of the Lord? And who may stand in His holy place? He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who has not lifted up his soul to falsehood and has not sworn deceitfully. He shall receive a blessing from the Lord and righteousness from the God of his salvation. This is the generation of those who seek Him, who seek Your face--even Jacob. Lift up your heads, O gates, and be lifted up, O ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in! Who is the King of glory? The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle. Lift up your head, O gates, and lift them up, O ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in! Who is this King of glory? The Lord of hosts, He is the King of glory."
Psalm 24

"Wait for the Lord; be strong and let your heart take courage; Yes, wait for the Lord."
Psalm 27:14

"To You, O Lord, I call; My rock, do not be deaf to me, for if You are silent to me, I will become like those who go down to the pit. Hear the voice of my supplications when I cry to You for help, when I lift up my hands toward Your holy sanctuary...." "Blessed be the Lord, because He has heard the voice of my supplication. The Lord is my strength and my shield; My heart trusts in Him, and I am helped; therefore my heart exults, and with my song I shall thank Him. The Lord is their strenth, and He is a saving defense to His anointed. Save Your people and bless Your inheritance; Be their shepherd also and carry them forever."
Psalm 28:1-2; 6-9

Isn't it wonderful how a little time with God demolishes the pity party inside my head? :)
Thank you, Lord Jesus, for guiding my steps even when I can't see where You're leading me. Thank you for picking me up and putting me back where I belong when I stray. O Lord O Lord how majestic is Your Name in all the earth!

Amen!!!
