Monday Morning Encouragement!

Hi friends! I haven't had a ton of time to post lately, but I wanted to stop by this morning and leave you with some things I've been encouraged by lately: Psalm 86 and Holy is the Lord by Chris Tomlin. I hope they can been encouraging to you as well as you pursue the Lord this week!

Hear me, Lord, and answer me,
 

for I am poor and needy.

Guard my life, for I am faithful to you;
 

save your servant who trusts in you.

You are my God; have mercy on me, Lord,
  

for I call to you all day long.

Bring joy to your servant, Lord,
 

for I put my trust in you.

You, Lord, are forgiving and good,
  

abounding in love to all who call to you.

Hear my prayer, Lord;


listen to my cry for mercy.

When I am in distress, I call to you,
 

because you answer me.

Among the gods there is none like you, Lord;
 

no deeds can compare with yours.

All the nations you have made
 

will come and worship before you, Lord;
   

they will bring glory to your name.

For you are great and do marvelous deeds;  

you alone are God.

Teach me your way, Lord,


 that I may rely on your faithfulness;


give me an undivided heart,
   

 that I may fear your name.

I will praise you, Lord my God, with all my heart;   

I will glorify your name forever.

For great is your love toward me;
    

you have delivered me from the depths,
    

from the realm of the dead.

Arrogant foes are attacking me, O God;
    

ruthless people are trying to kill me—
   

they have no regard for you.

But you, Lord, are a compassionate and gracious God,
    

slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness.

Turn to me and have mercy on me;
    

show your strength in behalf of your servant;


save me, because I serve you
    

just as my mother did.

Give me a sign of your goodness,
   

 that my enemies may see it and be put to shame,
    

for you, Lord, have helped me and comforted me.

~Psalm 86
