—Psalm 73:1-5, 16-17, 21-28
by: Trisha Gerstel.
Today’s world is a never-ending onslaught of temptations. We are tempted toward envy and desire, lust and greed, revenge and pride. These worldly temptations invade our homes and our hearts and can only be escaped when we turn to the Lord in prayer, meditation, and Scripture reading. When we focus our hearts on God, we are able to turn our backs on the world’s temptations and instead make the Lord “the strength of [our] heart and [our] portion forever” (v.26). Let each of us work toward this goal today and every day. Amen.
