Psalms 123 - Thy Will be done


"A song of ascents. To you I raise my eyes, to you enthroned in heaven. Yes, like the eyes of servants on the hand of their masters, Like the eyes of a maid on the hand of her mistress, So our eyes are on the LORD our God, till we are shown favor. Show us favor, LORD, show us favor, for we have our fill of contempt."  ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭123:1-3‬

Psalms 123 - Thy Will be done.  I look upon the Masters hand this morning, expecting a response, to make all of this nonsense go away.  His response is "thy Kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven."  My response back, "this isn't heaven, it is more like hell."  His response back "Jesus made a difference in His world, He had the same contempt."  Finding favor with God is done by doing His will.  We may not like these circumstances, where up is down and right is wrong but our response to the world is to be love.  Jesus loved the sinner but hated the sin.  Look beyond the sin and see what Jesus sees.  

What is God saying to me: He who has begun a good work in you will see it thru til the end.   

Dear Father, this purgation isn't easy, I guard my steps and my response.  You have given me a desire for Your heart and this is the goal.  I see the conflict within and strive each day only to fall short.  So I look to Your favor for Your strength and not my own.  I love You with all my heart and You see the battle, I don't ask why, I just ask when.  Prayers for a friend in a battle, I pray that You give Him favor for he is deserving of so much more.  I ask this in Jesus name, Amen.

Mary, Queen of Saints, Pray for us.
St Joesph, Pray for us.
