O Lord, be gracious to us; we wait for you.
Be our arm every morning, our salvation in time of trouble.
Isaiah 33:2 ESV
Those who wait on the Lord...
know they need His grace...
His support...
His salvation...
With this self-knowledge of need...
comes an expectation grace...
The psalmist cries...
O Lord... be gracious to us...
we wait for You...
The psalmist reveals his knowledge of the Lord's grace...
His heart for the poor and needy...
Who is like the Lord our God, who is seated on high,
who looks far down on the heavens and the earth?
He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the ash heap,
to make them sit with princes, with the princes of his people.
Psalm 113:5-8 ESV
The Lord is gracious to those who know their poverty... their need... apart from Him...
For those with such knowledge of the Lord...
a cry of confidence is heard...
O Lord... be gracious... I wait for You...
in need of Your strength each morning...
in need of Your salvation each trouble-filled day...
Do you know you are poor and needy apart from Him...?
How confident are you of His grace in your life...?
