Psalm 131:1-3
131:1 To be humble before the Lord is to open our minds wide to His wisdom and instruction. Haughtiness is interference; when we think that we known best, we neglect the counsel from God that truly is best. God instructs us to be invested in the present day (Matthew 6:33) and to comfort us with that, He reminds us that He will take care of everything ahead and in the periphery (Matthew 6:34).
For much is too profound for us, but nothing is too complex for God. He can arrange for us to have what we need, and He will be able to do so efficiently because He knows what we need. Therefore, we have no reason to worry.
131:2 When we trust and delve into that counsel from God, we are able to quiet the noise and the anxiety within us. We are raised by God to be strong and solemn of soul, mind and spirit. For God's spiritual nourishment raises us better than any worldly "wisdom" ever could.
131:3 As God's children, we hope in the Lord because He proven Himself willing and capable of hope-fulfillment. Right now and forever we hope in Him and daily that faithful hope revives us, rejuvenates us. Calms us. Feeds us. Fills us. Animates and inspires. Leads and corrects. That hope loves us and fulfills us every single day.
